Thanks for that, brings back memories! I paddled up the Atwood system to Felsia then up the Witchwood River entering the lake. That's some real nice country up there!

Thanks Rob, every little bit of info helps!

Big thanks to Joey!

Just received an invite an hour ago from my brother in law to join his family up there for a couple of days. Nothing packed, totally unprepared, but we're gonna go, leaving tomorrow at 4am. (I love spur of the moment trips ). Anyhow, my bro in law and his family have been spending there vacation on Doe for the last 8 years. They fish, but not really seriously. He's seen, but never caught a walleye in all those trips. So I tell him on the phone, no problem we'll fill the boat with them when I get there! Has anyone here ever fished walleye in Doe and can point me in the right direction? If we don't get any walleyes he'll never let me live it down .

What a day, way to go guys!

I know someone who had a site up and running in one day using these guys: http://www.web-sites-r-us.com/createWebFootprint0.php I know, I know, "web-sites-r-us" , but hey if it works why not?

My kind of trip, awesome report!

Early mornings when the lake is calm a heavy fog/mist will sometimes hover over the water where a spring enters the lake. Your best bet is probably a temperature probe that you can drop down though...

Don't bother with the Tips line, call the O.P.P. directly, and take pictures of the offenders.

Yep, and another great report from you. Thanks for posting!

Man you guys sure have lived in a lot of places! Nova Scotia now eh? Well congrat's, that's a beautiful place to live and raise a child! Nice report as well and out of a paddleboat to boot. Just goes to show you a person doesn't need a $30,000 dollar boat to catch fish, you mostly need skill.

"I can't believe it's not vinegar!"

Absolutely OK, although the condition of the road varies depending on when it was last graded. It's actually quite heavily travelled... I'm usually on that road at least once a year and never had a problem. A few years back I drove my old Ford Probe on it several times so that should answer your question right there.

Just joking Wayne! Enjoy the rest of your summer up there you lucky jerk!

Nice pictures, you do live in paradise as far as I'm concerned! I swear that style of boat is unique to Superior. Years ago I fished with a guy regularly at the mouth of the Michipicoten who had an identical boat...Only thing though, when the lake kicked up it was a floating death trap. So top heavy and unstable in big water with the structure up front. One time we got caught too far from the harbour and a storm came out of nowhere. Never been that frightened on the water before or since...

Yeah, post some pic's of the finished product, they look great!

Thanks, but mine are small and smelly with tons off attitude! And here I thought they'd outgrow that

Hey, if the shoe, er I mean THE HAT fits, wear it!

Looks like a blast Mike, thank's for posting. On a side note, Scrabble is NOT boring . Sometimes we have all day marathons on rainy days at the cottage. Gets pretty competetive too. My sister in law is a linguist and it just KILLS her that she's not able to beat me .

That's awesome, looks like you've quite the honey hole there!

Hey Dan, first off congratulations! There's so many great places up there...it's hard to single out any. However, if you travel up hwy 17 north of the Soo then take 101 east to Chapleau there's a really nice camp on Anjigami lake east of Hawk Junction right off hwy 101. They've got an amazing beach there http://www.duenorth.net/campanjigami/ If you continue along 101 to Chapleau you can make the long drive into Missinaibi Provincial Park. Very remote, and huge scenic lake with amazing fishing. From there cut down 129 and follow the signs to Wakami Lake Provincial Park. Great little underutilised park with good pike and walleye fishing. From there instead of continuing south along 129 you can head east on the Sultan (E.B. Eddy) logging road over to hwy 144. It's a massive shortcut, but beyond that you can access Ramsey Lake off the Sultan road. There's a rough, but very decent boat launch and there's lots of nice island campsites. Walleye fishing is very good. You'll be there in September, so you might want to check out the rivers flowing into the north channel of huron and the Superior trib's off hwy 17. That's PRIME time for pink salmon. There are literally millions of them, and when they first enter the rivers they're still very silver and aggressive. They'll hit spoons and spinners like crazy....very easy fishing! cheers, Mike

Wow, 41/2 hours? that's just crazy! Shame you didn't get to at least see it.....

Thanks Cliff, that was great!

Yep the ducks are whacko, I dropped them off in Latchford on the way home and gave them directions to your camp, enjoy!

Good job TJ, that'll be a nice sized structure!
