I was in biwabik for a week late fall, dragged the boat all the way for a work-cation hoping to find some open water. Froze up the very night we had time to get out, pizzed me off, but got some local bar info from a few locals during the week that sabin would be my best bet.
Not sure how that translates for your situation just throwing it out there.
Vis pizza and tnt bar had pretty darn good pizza, pulltabs machines sucked, but Megan’s in aurora had great food, daily special always kicked butt.
Unsure of the trout seasons but there’s a mine pit not far from town by voyageurs trail that looked to have easy access, season was closed when we went.
