All Great lakes, some harder than others to get to, but well worth the drive.

I recommend chain lake for starters I have always done well there this time of year. Stop in at the local tackle shop in Princeton and ask what fly's have been producing best. This time of year there are many possibilities, so be prepared to change up to match the hatch too.

Now you need to watch for cougars lurking in the bush waiting for you while angling.  Maybe it would good to fish from a boat or inflatable away from shore.    Or take one of those fish bonkers to bonk the cougar on the nose or poke it in the eye whatever works.

Now you need to watch for cougars lurking in the bush waiting for you while angling.  Maybe it would good to fish from a boat or inflatable away from shore.    Or take one of those fish bonkers to bonk the cougar on the nose or poke it in the eye whatever works.

The chances of young cougars attacking a full grown male adult are very slim. These cougars(3 in all)were likely siblings turfed out by the mother so she could rear another family. Consequently, due to their inexperience at hunting, they resort to searching for small, easy prey. As a young man I worked in mining exploration for years, traversing through the bush on compass bearings often alone, but swinging a big sharp ox head Axe, blazing trail as I went with my rather large hunting knife on my belt. Not only did I never have any problems with cougars, I used to think upon an encounter it would be in the best interest of the cougar to back off!
