June 20th-July 16th. Help me pick some spots.

As the topic states I have June 20th through July 16th off with nothing to do besides fish.

I live close to the Detroit lakes area so lets say this is my starting point for my adventure. I am going to start out fishing bad medicine lake that is near Itasca state park. This time of the year the trout start biting pretty good and I would like to do two or three days fishing.

After the trout fishing my main target will be catching some walleyes and hopefully the chance to get on some nicer sized ones. I am thinking of heading to leech lake for two or three days after I am done at bad medicine lake.

How is leech lake this time of year? Any suggestions for a good camp ground? Possibly with shower's?

From leech I am thinking I will head to winnie for two or three days. I have fished winnie before and I really like this lake but I want to try different things. I am up for opinions on resorts with nice camps grounds and hopefully showers also on winnie.

From Winnie I want to head to LOW and spend a few days also. Suggestions on a good camp ground again?

So of the lakes I am thinking about is there any you would skip or add to my list? Any you would spend more of the time at then the others? I would like to catch a couple eater walleyes here and there but I more interested in the possibilities of catching and releasing some bigger walleyes 20+ and above. I am thinking I will want be gone two weeks at the most. By that time I am sure I will be sick of myself and sleeping in the back of my truck.

Thanks for any input guys.

    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • 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!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • 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.
