I'm don't know where you live, but the best walleye lake I have ever fished is Devil's Lake, ND. There are a few resorts on the lake and the lake is not highly pressured. The town of Devil's Lake is served by Amtrak(Empire Builder) and also has scheduled airline service. I have always used Amtrak, they deal with tackle well and it is a very comfortable trip from the Chicago area. I have made 5 trips and the only trip I didn't limit out on was my first. I have never used a guide. It's still a long trip, but no passport! Tom Fishin' fool in NE Illinois |
