Alright, you guys got me too, here’s a few, I didn’t see in here.

“Because you are a fat discusting pig, that is correct” Drill Sargeant in Full Metal Jacket after finding the jelly doughnut in the footlocker

“This one time at band camp” American Pie

“Right here Dude” Spicoli to the pizza guy in Fast Times at Ridgemont High

“Clint Eastwood. I fu**ed him–ohhhhh” Andrew Dice Clay in The Adventures of Ford Fairlane (talk about one liners)

“Get in my belly” Fat Bast*rd to Mini-Me in Austin Powers

“Drop your co**s, and grab your socks” Clint Eastwood in Heartbreak Ridge

Minnows aren’t as big a deal to portage as you would think, but I agree that preserved ones would probably work fine if presented on a spinner or jigged. I’ve actually caught as many fish there with artificials, as I have with live bait. If I go again early in the season, I think I’ll bring fake leeches, and dried minnows in addition to my cranks & Mepps.
As far as warm weather clothes go, just get one or two pairs of those pants with the zip off legs, and you’ll be fine. Waterproof footwear, and extra socks are a must have–the water is going to be pretty darn cold, wet feet will make you miserable in a hurry.
Have fun–JON

The type of fish you’re interested in, would definately be a factor. I’ve been up there a couple times early in the year (late May early June). Once on the west side, once on the east. Fishing for ‘eyes was good on both trips with live bait under a slip bobber & casting cranks from shore at night working best. I also tried a little jigging from the canoe one night two years ago with good luck. If you want northerns, just hang a spoon off the side of the canoe as your paddling around, and you’ll get bored of catching them. The first time I went there, we caught quite a few smallies pitching jigs near shoreline rock piles, and throwing cranks in the same areas. I was told several of the lakes have an abundance of lake trout, but I’ve never fished for them, so I would difer to someone else if you want to try for them. If this is your first time, a little nonfishing advice. Dress in layers, and don’t forget the long underwear. Bring waterproof, disposable cameras in addition to your regular camera. You can’t bring too many matches/lighters. It will be cold at night, and not being able to start a fire…..brrrrr. If you’re using an outfitter, they will be a great source information, and even if you’re not, their websites have checklists, general area maps, fishing info etc. I am going back for my third time later this summer (first time without an outfitter),and it definately won’t be my last. Good luck, and have fun.
