Hi Dave ! I Use to live in Gogama (X-MNR Employee) and learned the hard way on how to deal with the bugs. I'm not familiar with the size of lake that you will be fishing, but generally the bugs are not to bad while on the lake unless you're fishing the shorline. Be prepared @ the dock after evening fishing. Any of the oil based fly-dope worked well for me, be sure to cover the following areas : - behind the ears - around the ankles and wrists. Be sure that the repellent does not come into contact with painted surfaces (jigs) as it tends to melt away some paints. ( if it can soften paint, whats it doing to us! ) Also, avoid scented soap, shompoo and anti-perspirants Regards whitee
