Resort Choice?

[Bobberboy]

My wife and I are celebrating our 25th next year and want to spend it fishing in Ontario. I would prefer to stay away from LOW. Any suggestions on a First Class drive in resort?

I've got a great fly in.

Muskie Bay on Crow is a real nice place to go. Just across the road from LOW, but a MUCH different lake. Deep, clear, and almost zero development.

I've been to 3 different places in Canada with my wife, and while we didn't do the best fishing there the nicest cabin we stayed in by far was at Sleepy Dog Cabins on Wabaskang Lake near Perrault Falls. We went there in the fall of 2003 and the lake was something like 8 feet low so we probably didn't give the lake a proper chance, but their "couples" cabin was awesome - jacuzzi tub, sattelite TV, right on the water, just about anything you could want.

I have gotten to know the guys at Dog Lake Resort northwest of Thunder Bay. Have always had good fishing, very reasonable prices and great cabins. Way out in the woods but only about 45 minutes back to town for your big anniversary dinner. just check doglakeresortdotcom.

Actually I am heading up there next week and can't wait to get going.

A nice drive in resort that has numerous lakes around it to fish is Brown's Clearwater West Resort norht of Aitikoken (sp?). I've caught some nice trout out of Clearwater and walleye in nearby lakes that have portages or launch access. Barry has boats and/or outpost on many lakes in this area and does a good job of getting you on fish.

If you have ever watched Butch Furtmann's Sportsman Notebook out of Duluth - He usually has a segment on this area once a year.

Have you considered a houseboat? The wife and I did a houseboat on both the 25th and 30th on Rainy Lake. We used Rainy Lake houseboats both times. They have great boats, that are modern and everything works. We went the 2nd week in August both times and had good weather and the fishing was excellent. Incidently, she is the type of gal that could care less if she ever went fishing or camping and she loves the houseboat. She wants to do the houseboat thing next year for 33. I guess she can't wait for 35.
