Canada Lake Finder?

[TMF89]

Hey guys, we have a trip scheduled to Dobie Lake through L&M Outfitters (out of Dryden) for the 15th-21st. It's 142 miles north/northwest/northeast (not sure) of Dryden, and I was just wondering if anyone knew of a good way to find it on a map of Ontario, so we could estimate the weather/ice conditions. Thanks for the help!

Did you try Google Earth yet? That won't help you with the conditions, but there are web cams in Sioux Lookout that will assist you with your estimations.

Hello, Be a pleasure meeting you hopefully soon.. We had a great day to get ice moving. Dryden was warm and sunny all day. Wabigoon is breaking up in our bay, the rest of the lake should be out in acouple of days or atleast by the weekend at the very latest. As for Dobie lake. It is up about 30 miles west of Pickle Lake. Will be alittle longer before that ice goes out up in that area however things are changing fast now. Ill keep you posted as we get closer. The good news is the cabin is near the river flowage of the lake which means many times we are able to get into Dobie's Cabin even when rest of the lake is iced up because of the river current.

Oh, didn't realize you guys had an account on here! I'm Tyler, in case you didn't realize. On that note though, from the few references you gave me, I gathered that almost all their fishing was done at the river entrance on the north side of the lake? Will we be able to get to that?

Yesterday was another good day. Much of Wabigoon went out considering the warm temps/south winds and sun most of the day, even had acouple rain showers pass through. This morning is warm but foggy.

As to your question. Depends on ice. The south river is just as good as the north, just not as big. Ill keep you posted when we know more.

Thanks for the updates! I've been looking at the weather reports for Pickle Lake, and it looks like the next ten days will range from the upper 30s to maybe lower 60s, with it mostly staying around the upper 40s/lower 50s, with some rain? That should bode well for taking care of the ice I would think. Looking forward to your next update!

Another good one is to go to [email protected] you can get a brochure booklet and a map of ontario with all the lakes there. Its a really good detail on the map and its free.
