Guest Guest Report post Posted September 6, 2006 Fishing tip- try bright coloured worm harness (hammered gold or copper) and a worm for trolling. Bright coloured jig- red or green seem to be working- for jigging. Hot spots- good try! Try the well known ones in Lac- Sand point etc., the river in Dog Lake. Exact locations- well, I personally don't know any consistent hot spots, and I haven't been on Kashabowie. You might have more success from members if you joined as well.

tracker 61 Report post Posted September 6, 2006 Was out on Lac on Monday. caught walleye from 5' to 30' deep. Mostly on jigs and minnows. As for a hotspot, anywhere there was structure we dropped a line and caught a few. This time of year with the nights getting colder, the deeper the better I would think.

Guest Guest Report post Posted September 12, 2006 -Lac des Mille Lacs: Bring a fish finder, it is huge, watch for drop offs, rocky shoals or sand bars and use heavier line because you're bound to run into a pike or two -Kashabowie Lake: The lake itself is one of the most outfished of the area. THere are some pike, but the walleye tend to be small and scattered -Hazelwood lake: RIght now there are several large females roaming about...caught about a 2 1/2 pounder last night right at the mouth of the river. A few perch, (which are plentiful) will also taste good! -Kam River: If you value your life; do not eat anything from this polluted river. Try for large pike where the river meets the big lake. -Dog Lake: They should call this place "Lake of a Thousand Cabins". Rich vacationers have been pulling walleye out all summer long. Those that are left will be small and hard to find without a fish finder. There are a few creek feeding in at Hawkeye Bay that occasionally produce walleyes, but more frequently harbour nice small mouth and the occasional white fish... Your best off to try the lakes mentioned in one of the earlier posts "new to Thunder Bay". But out of those lakes, Lac is definately the best, if you have the time, equipment and motivation....

Gone8to1248 158 Report post Posted September 13, 2006 Hey Rick You talking about the same Kashabowie Lake accross the road from Shebandowan? For those of us that fish it we seem to catch a heck of a lot of fish out of it. Big walleye and Big Northern both. There is a lot of natural food in the lake and it does make it hard to find the fish at times but they are there. Catching them is the name of the game! gone8to1248 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
