We have been fishing Osullivan lake which is about 15 miles or so from Nakina too. You will absolutely love it. A 2 lb walleye up there is like a 6 lber on erie. Not to mention the pike and lakers. Take Plenty of JD green hair jigs and 4 inch gulp shiners. Abolutely hammer the walleye with that set up. If you want big fish take divers with you and crankbaits, or harnesses. the big fish will be in 50 plus ft of water waiting to move up to the flats at night. Make sure you have good portable electronics if they arent provided. Man I got 5 more weeks till my turn. Good luck Capt. make sure you post some pics of those golden eyes.

ps.. the best lure in my tackle box is a 2/0 gold hook with 2 split shot 18 inches above with either a gulp minnow or a live one still fishing like perch fishing on erie.

Second that, except my go to bait up there in Georgian Bay is the gulp minnow in the black shad color. Cast it on a 1/8 or 3/16 plain head jig ( I like Bass Pro XPS). Smallies, walleye, pike.... never know what you will catch... they all will hit it.

Good luck capt juls. You are right up north is it's thing. Everything else up there is a bonus. Hope you tangle with a couple big northerns nothing quite like it. Make sure all technology devices are in the off position upon arrival and don't turn them back on till ur stateside again. Good luck and safe travels!

Thanks! But, they have WI-FI up there, so I'll be taking the iphone and updating to Facebook with pictures of my adventures. But, I will limit it...

It's a shallow lake, and I'm told we will be fishing mostly for pike since we have all the walleye we need to catch here on Erie.

There is a Wednesday night walleye fry though, so I guess we'll catch a few for that to share with the other guests. And, a shore lunch on one of the days.

I am mostly looking forward to the sights and "smells" of the north woods... taking me back to my childhood of camping with my family every year growing up....oh, and the shore lunch.

I fish for a living, so the fishing is just a bonus to my vacation.
