Has anyone fished Mayhew Lake (off the gunflint trail) before? It's one of the only lakes I've never been to up there. It's listed as having a canoe access, but I swear I've read somewhere that backing in a small boat is possible. Just curious if anyone has been to the access and can verify that? I don't want to drive down there and not have a place to turn around, if indeed the access is canoe only.

There is a small access and you can get a small boat in.  Plenty of room to turn around.

Lake trout average 1-2#.   Occasionally bigger ones.   Bonus big Brown's but very few in numbers.

Yeah, it's those big brown trout that actually intrigue me the most about this lake. I'll be up there in less than 2 weeks, hopefully will get a chance to check the lake out :grin:

      I have heard it's because of the drought. I know in my area ( meeker co.) the sloughs that they trap minnows in have dried up.

      Excuse my ignorance, but was is driving the bait prices? Usually the shortage is due to a late ice-out from the swamps and streams. This year should have been much better.

      I should probably learn to use the 6+ containers of lures I have collecting dust in my tackle box. We got on a decent crappie bite the last couple of evenings and I broke out some plastics.  I caught some crappies on them ,just need to build my confidence in using them! I did notice they didn't seem to hold on to them as long as minnows!

      Minnows are 50 cents each, and leeches are $50 a pound.

      Absolutely. I get full bars all-along the drive from Cook to The Landing, and out into Head O Lakes bay. I can't say that I've stared much at my phone signal anywhere else besides on my way to Black Bay. We still don't get much for service there because there are a lot of steep slopes with tall trees in the way. That was expected though. The tower is definitely providing better service to the area in general IMO.

      Any updates on this new tower? Has it helped AT and T customers throughout the lake get better service?

      Went in to Lucky 7 to get some crappie minnows today. All they had were crappie minnows and fatheads. She said to call in advance for the opener, couldn't say for sure if they'd have rainbows, shiners, etc for opener!
