I understand that Snowbank Lake in the BWCA has a good number of Lake Trout. Is this true? When is the best time to fish them? Will downriggers work? What bait and presentations will be best?
There is a 25 hp limit in the BWCA portion can one use a 125 hp on the other portion and switch to a 9.9 kicker motor for the BWCA side?

I can answer some of your questions. Snowbank does have a nice population of lake trout. Downriggers will work there. You can use any size motor in the non-BWCA portion of the lake. No motors of any sort, even laying in the boat, are allowed in the BWCA portion. I can give you the number of a resort (Smitty's) on Snowbank. They can tell you about bait. Their number is 218=365-6032. Good luck.

Sorry..I did give you incorrect information. 25 HP motors are allowed in the BWCA portion of Snowbank. You however could not switch over to your kicker, leaving you larger motor on the boat.
