Tarball Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Hi Folks......I have a new tent, and a new four wheeler, and REALLY would like info on "drive to" lakes for Lake Trout.Any tips......I am kind of an old guy, who just retired, and really can't do the BWCA stuff any more. Could folks give me some tips on lakes I can drive my four wheeler to for ice fishing? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Linderholm Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 Welcome aboard Tarball, Re-post this on the BWCA-Duluth-range forum you will get alot of replies off of those guys. I know Gunflint Lake might be a good option for you as well as Burntside in Ely. Both will allow for motorized travel and get you on some fish. I know there are better ones just don't know them for myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldwaterfan Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 tarball: not many lake trout lakes around two harbors that I know of, but there are two nice stream trout (splake and rainbow) lakes just outside of silver bay that have an atv trail leading to them. They might be of interest to you. Otherwise, if you have time, there are several trout lakes along and near the gunflint. Many of these are easily accesible by car. I'm not sure about atv use up there, check with the dnr. Otherwise, check out the minnesota dnr's web page and use their lake finder feature or use their list of trout lakes. So many lakes to choose from. A little searching and I'm sure you'll find ones that suit your tastes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
