Hey everyone... I will be heading up to Lake Pakashkan in late May for a week to do some fishing. It will be my first time up. Just wondering if anyone has fished it and if so do you have any advice as to where to look or how to fish for Walleye and Pike. Also, I am looking into buying a Navionics chip for my GPS to help me locate some spots to try. I am hoping the detail on it is worth it so if you have used that chip on this lake let me know if it was of help. Thanks in advance for any advice!

Not direct info but this may help a bit. My father in law and his brother and some of their friends used to fish it about 10 years ago. They have told me many stories about it! They said they would always fish the wind blown bays and shorline cuts. The fish always seemed to be stacked in them catching all the baitfish that would blow into them. This is fairly true for any kind of fishing up in canada though. It held true at our new lake we now go to up there! They almost exclusivly used plastic minnow style baits as it saved on trying to keep bait and saved a lot of time rebaiting! I will try to pry some tips out of them as they no longer fish up there and may share them!

Awesome! Really appreciate the help and look forward to hopefully hearing back from you. I have heard that tip before as well, fishing the wind blown bays. Lots of big pike in those waters from what I have heard. I'm counting down the days!

      My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.

      As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…

      I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...

      Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?

      I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.

      You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.

      Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
