Going to the Angle in Sept. Any tips on the best route from Minneapolis?

Made the trip many times.<P>Hwy 65 north to Hwy 2. Hwy 2 west to Hwy 46.<BR>North on Hwy 46 to Northome. Hwy 72 north to Baudette. Hwy 11 west to Warroad.

There's a couple parts missing from Wave Runner's directions. At Northome you hit Hwy 71, which you would take SOUTH for about 3 miles, then go west on Hwy 1, which connects up with Hwy 72 after about 8 miles. then take 72 north to Baudette.

We are also going to the angle in September. Not really sure or what to expect. Have usually fished there in the spring around the islands, MN side. Any suggestions or recommendations as to where to go. Any help would be helpful. <BR>Thanks

Island Guy: If you want a easy drive that is faster and scenic, with almost half four lane at 70, check this way out. I take I94 (Posted 70)to Clearwater exit, right to Hwy 10(about 5 mi) left on Hwy 10 to Motley, (Posted 65), to Hwy 64, only two towns and good road. At the end of 64 turn left to Hwy 71, watch going around west side of Bemidji for signs of Hwy 71, joins 72 to Blackduck, to Killiher, to Baudette, Warroad, Sprag, and the Angle. I make it consistly in under five hours to Baudette, only exceeding the posted by 7 to 10 mph. This the most four lane to get there. I've tried all the others and I go up at least 12 times a year....Kaz<P>------------------<BR>KAZ
