This will be my 1st time to LOW. Just wondering a couple of things? I'll be coming from St.Cloud MN. Once I get on hwy 71 past black duck and past Red Lake. Where do I go from there to get to an Access close to Arnesons, Looks like that road goes right by LOW. What is the best (closest place to drive out from to fish Arnesons.) Is this a spot on the lake I assume.) Sorry if this is annoying, I learn as I go. I have a portable house, just looking for a little help finding an access and getting to a fishing spot. How much is the lake access?<P>Any help would be much appreciated. I'll even buy you a beer if I see you on the lake.<P>thanks

<BR> Directions to Arnesen's Rocky Point as follows: At Blackduck take 72 NOT 71 north through Kellier and Washkish to the Jct with 11 on the east edge of Baudette. Take 11 west through Baudette, through Williams and to the east edge of Roosevelt. Take Co.Rd. 17 north(right) all the way to the end of the road. Drive-on access point in that area is Babler's road, just before you get to Arnesen's. Not sure about the fee, I'm guessing about $5.oo. Richard will be able to give specific info about the bite, bait, depths etc.. Also Arnesen's is an excellent place to eat. Good Luck Ol Sneller

Bablers road will have a big blue sign at the driveway. Give him your 5 bucks as right when you turn off the tar road. Follow his road to the lake, when you get to the lake pretty much jsut follow the road straight out, if you go right you will be at Twin Islands (not a bad place to go by the reports) Once on the road you should be able to see Gull rock, keep on the road right though all the houses on the rock and you have another 2 miles or so to arnesen's. I was there last saturday and kept a limit of nice saugers in 30 feet of water. There is house all over so your guess is as good as mine whether to fish right with everyone or get away from the crowd. If it was up to me I would get away from the crowd. Hope this helps<P><BR>bucks-n-ducks<BR>

You may want to go up Hwy 10 to DL and then get on 59 north. Take that to hwy 2 then go north out of McIntosh. I don't remember the road number but you can basically go straight north to Warroad. I think it would save you some time. Not sure but it is worth looking at on the map.
