I have a nice pike fishing spot, where there is usually not a lot of people around. Sometimes during duck season you will see a few people.
There is several ways to get there, and that is half of the fun. lol The cheapest and the way I use takes a while, but the fishing is great.
When I leave the house it is only about a 30 minute drive to the trail turnoff of the dirt road, the trail to the landing is fairly rough and while only 15 miles takes 45 minutes usually, unless it is muddy. It then takes (I'm slow) probably an hour to get the canoe unloaded, the motor installed and gear loaded, Then 3 to 3 1/2 hours run downstream to minto flats, where the pike fishing is out of this world, and the duck hunting is about as good.
Last year was my first with a canoe, but while it made for some long days, it was a blast. This year we plan on several trips, but hopefully three day trips instead of just one day.
There is float plane service in there, but that is more expensive than the jet boat was. lol The canoe and 8 horse honda will run around 9 hours on less than three gallons of gas.
There are lots of fishing holes around , but this one has turned into my favorite.
