Can someone give me an idea of whether or not it is reasonable to expect to be able to secure a remote campsite on CFS this Saturday morning. I have a place to stay about 10 miles from the lake but would prefer to camp if possible. Thanks.

There are quite a few remote(boat to) campsites on CFS. We are at Williams Narrows resort the week of July 4th every year and we rarely see one used. The couple of nicer ones I have seen are... if you go through the Narrows and are heading toward Battle Point right around the area they call "The Snag" there are a couple on the point to your right and they seem to be used the most from what I have seen. Most are marked with a sign on shore. There is also a campground right next to Williams Narrows resort that I have never seen even close to full when I have been up there. Good luck. Make sure to let us know how the fishing is!!

Just got back from CFS. Camped just off MacAvity island. Had a good time getting away from it all. The fishing was a little a slower then what I hoped for, but we still found fish. We picked up walleyes in Winni on Perch Bar with a jig and minnow combo and on the last day had success on the humps with a crawler and spinner. Also found fish on Bowens flat at night.

The mayflies just hatched and fishing on the flats on Monday was pretty miserable as there was no wind and the flys were quite annoying.

Thanks for tips on the campsites....

      We spent Tuesday sept 26 to this Tuesday on the east end of the lake. Very consistent temperature and that southern wind with a bit of cloud cover was great for walleye fishing. We followed the wind and fished wind blown points and shoreline.  A few minutes on the graph showed us fish most places.  We saw fish, caught those fish.  We tend to fish lindy rigs but fished entirely jigs and minnows,  (y-store had plenty of bait).  Didn’t go to Big Bay but probably left some schooling fish for someone else. Caught fish all times of the day.  Didn’t need to low light for success.  Last two days of warmer temps and full sun slowed the bite a bit.  Didn’t see the 30” pigs as others have referred to but saw plenty over 20 and many of those smaller fish to remind us of the future health of the walleye population. Got to love the jig bite……

      That’s some seriously cool paint on those jigs!  Do they make them in “happy” or just “mad”? 😉

      At the Hwy 6 access on the west side.  In the willows on the south side of the access.  Full blown easy chair.   You found a commode on Big Rice?  It might be handy to know that is. 😉

      Long tails on Shags?  That’s interesting.  I’ve never heard that was a thing.  Are they calendar birds?   They are still on my list.

      I got some micro plastics for my 2 mm jigs but I am looking for custom color combinations in 1/1.5 inch long plastics. I did get a thing of jigs and tell if you can figure out the team they represent.

      Took Finn over to my dad’s pond and there was one beautiful drake wood-duck on the far end of the pond. It flew off but we waited to see if any came back Saturday night.
