Have any of you been to Manitoba/North Western Ontario?

There's an estimated 200,000-300,000 lakes, with 90% inaccessible by road.

If you've ever watched 'Ice Road Trucker' then you'll know why they have to move cargo by ice road. There's simply too many lakes to build roads and bridges.

I wouldn't mind buying a float plane and fishing a few hundred of them.

I know one of my uncles and my grandfather flew up into Canada to some sort of little cabin that was only accessible by a float plane I'll be back in the late 90s earlier 2000s.

My uncle said it was the greatest fishing that he had ever experienced in his entire life. They were the only two on the lake, and every cast was my size walleye, Pike, or small mouth.

I don't know where they went but if I had to guess it was somewhere north of Wisconsin and Minnesota, could be wrong, but I also don't know my Canadian region's or whatever.

I do watch a lot of The New Fly Fisherman the show. Most of the producers and people on it are Canadian, and its sponsored by Orvis. If I had a guess you could probably look them up on YouTube and they probably have videos about whatever region or bodies of water you're looking at.

I can sit and watch their stuff non-stop, and also if I just want to take a nap, it's wonderful. Only other things that will help me go to sleep is golf, and World war II documentaries. No bullshit.

I would imagine though that whatever area you're looking at probably has excellent fishing, I guess it just depends upon what your targeting.

Hope that helps...
