Title: Re: Fishing Information

There is a Woodland Caribou Park Signature Site publication, dated 2004, which contains "fish productivity" maps.  For instance, there is a band of lakes straddling the Bloodvein (east/west) which show as predominantly walleye/northern lakes.  There are some minor exceptions.  Likewise, it shows a parallel band of lakes just further south running east/west that show as lake trout/walleye/northern.  South of that, even, there is a patch of lakes showing as primarily lake trout/northern pike lakes.  It also shows lakes where muskies & bass are present.  In addition, there is a "lake productivity" map, showing the estimated kilograms of fish present per hectare of lake per year.  To the extent that map is accurate, it should provide relative productivity of lakes by fish type.

I seem to recall this same information posted on-line somewhere but I can't seem to find it just now.

We did Irvine/Royd/Gammon a few years back.  Seems to me that Marten & one of his paddling buddies have some experience fishing Lighting (& probably everywhere else on your list!).  I'm not sure I've been to Moose.  Irvine is primarily walleye & northern... with an emphasis on BIG northern!  Royd is an excellent lake trout lake but the guys with me did well walleyes on the west end & over on Kennedy, etc..

Wish I had more info to share....
