I'm headed here.....
http://www.eaglelakeislandlodge.com/........ the first week of August. I have been to Canada 3 other times, the last being in 88. Those 3 times I fised a different lake system 30 to 40 miles east of this location, at
http://www.northstarlodge.com/ . I am really apprehensive of the change since we always killed them at Clay Lake. It was called Clay Lake for the color of the water. Unlike most Canadian Lakes, when you stick your hand in the water here, you can't see it. Fishing was easy as the Walleyes were easily found in 7 to 10 feet of water. We would troll slowly to find them, then toss a marker, swing back around, and jig the area. Eagle Lake is clear water, and we will be there much later in the season. I figure we will be fishing much deeper and vertical jigging when we find them. The reason we made the switch was for Muskies. Eagle Lake held the record for quite some time, as it was only broken recently. I also believe it is the only Lake where two Muskies of over 65 inches have been caught, and it is widely held that it is where the next record will come from. I love Large Black and Red Bucktails when going for these toothy critters.
