There is nothing better than heading to one of the most popular lakes west of Thunder Bay, Lac Des Mille Lac. Because of the remote location and the great hospitality, when I go to this lake I prefer to go to the west end and stay at Lac Des Mille Lodge. We left Thunder Bay around 6:00pm and by 8:00pm we were relaxing in the RV planning which spots to fish. The weather on saturday was discouraging with wind and rain it made for a misurable time on the water we braved mother nature for an hour and landed small walleye and pike close to the lodge.
Sunday was better fishing, we headed out after a good breakfast of bacon and eggs and fished some spots that have produced fish in the past. Having no luck in the usual spots we decided to concentrate on the rocky shores and points, starting in 12ft of water and drifting our jigs up to 7ft we picked up 1 nice 16" walleye and a chunky bass. We made our way to Blind Bay and started our drift again accross a promising point and picked up alot of walleyes between 15- 18" with both our limits of fish we headed back to the lodge to have a fish fry and relax.
The gear we used on this trip were:
7' medium/light spinning rods
8lb GAMMA Copolymer Line
Red and black jigs and a medium minnow.
Jungle Joe and Mighty Mitch Jig Flys
