Woman Lake

[Guest]

Planning a late May 2002 tripto Woman Lake.Anyone have suggestions for a resort?Also would appreciate info on walleye/panfish<BR>presentations and locations for that time of year.Thanks.

I would recomend staying at Journey's End resort on girl lake. If you don't want to stay on girl, broadwater resort on broadwater bay is a good choice.<P><BR>good luck in may

Talked to Broadwater yesterday about reservations.It appears they have a nice resort.Anyone able to give me some likely walleye/panfish areas so I can study the maps this winter?I would like to make my father in law happy-know what I mean?

Thanks for the info will be at leech lake in May also would like more info on small lakes around that area for Walleye or Crappie.<P>Thanks

[Guest]

Thanks for your help.Any info on other lakes would also be helpful for me in case we can't find them on Woman.I am also toying with the idea of an ice trip this winter to check out Brodwater resort in advance of our May trip.Any perch/crappie hotspots anyone would care to disclose?

agdaddy,If u r staying on women lake, do yourself a favor and hire guide dan krone, my parents and I had a wonderful experience with him this past june.Maps r great! but a guide that lives on the lake is so so so much better.he can get u on the fish.U wont b sorry.So later in the week u will look like a hero to the father-inlaw. goose

If you are still in need of extra lakes to try, give Big Birch a try. It's in the town of Hackensack and has a great public access. Crappies can be hot in that lake, as can the waldos. I learned that last year after many told me you couldn't!!! I didn't catch a crappie smaller than 1lb. If it's a warm spring, look to the outer edges of the weeds and pitch small tube jigs with a crappie minnow, or just slow troll them with you electric. This is amazingly deadly for crappies!!!! Good luck. Opps, one more lake to try...... Stony!!!!! Between Longville and Hackensack! PLUGGIN IN THE DARK!

I'd also recommend Dan Krone, I got to fish with him two summers ago through a contest on this web site. I learned a lot, but Dan is just a great person to share a day with. <P>Hey Dan, how did the idea of Guideing for Northern Pike work out last Winter? I know you had talked about trying it when Clayton and I fished with you.<P>Good Luck up there, the Woman Lake area is absolutly beautiful,<BR>Eric Korman
