Just got back from a 4 day trip to Lake of the Woods. It was my first time Canada. We had a blast and the main target was walleyes, but the smallmouth were great too. Easy to find once you identify the right type of shoreline to look for. Might be the time of year but they fought twice as hard as the ones I usually catch and were diving, jumping, and going under the boat. My best 3 were 17.5", 18.5" and 19.75".

I love LOW! I'm glad you got to savor its charms.
