Lakeland Map

Rod & Wayne at the end of the day

If You want a detailed PDF map of the above,go to links

The lakes we fish are Jackson, Kinnaird and Blackett. We quad in from the Jackson Mustering point in about 10 KM's not the canoe trail route (3 km's). The trails are groomed but there is mud and some steeper hills, nothing that you can't tow a boat up though. Some trails are rough but there are wood bridges over all the muskeg area's. The lakes have Jack, Perch, Walleye and white fish. The limit on Jack is one over 63 cm's. The fish are very good to eat. The favorite lures are Len Thompson- five of diamonds, Croc's, Black and white spoons. The boats should be light enough to get through a couple shallow area's between lakes without motors running.

Rules and Regulations

These are some things we found to make the trip a happy one. if you have any to add, go to the comment box below this heading and add a way.

· Be fair to those who drive and provide boats and gas. it is expensive to run these items· Count on helping pay for fuel, we won't beg you but we hope your conscience pricks you to the core if you don't pay up. Ah we just won't invite you next year!

Camping as light and compact as possible is crucial to the amount of trips needed to bring in and pack out equipment. holy it took along time to get stuff out this last year· be fair, if your trailers empty throw some other people stuff in to lesson the trips in. each trip takes approximately and hour out and back. quading is fun but this was work and the fun was yanked out of it after the first trip back.

a schedule will be laid out for who's with who. everyone will get the a new partner from meal to meal. so that we can enjoy each others company and their fishin secrets.
· Work as a group on the lake always have another boat in view when fishing
· Boats should have a float and line tied to it in case capsizing (milk jug and thin rope wound on)
· Bring a 5 gallon jug of water.
· I like bringing paper plates because I hate doing dishes at camp
· Group meals will be made using everyones skills from flipping whatever to doin dishes that way no one feels left out.
