Hi Folks,
I will be in the area of Baptiste and Elephant lake near Bancroft this week. Anyone ever fish these lakes for Muskie? Any luck? Any pointers on where to go would be greatly appreciated.
Any other fish species caught? Walleye? Pike? Bass etc...?
Kind Regards

Jaime

Have fished Baptiste over the years while visiting friends' cottages on northeast Lavalley Bay, near Blueberry Island. Only catches have been small sized bass and pike, as well as panfish, but was always limited by having to hang out with non-anglers, only being able to fish from the docks at the cottages, as well as having constant heavy boat traffic in that part of the lake during each visit. Using the search term "Baptiste fishing" on YouTube will produce a short list of videos of anglers catching some nice bass, muskie and walleye on the lake. If you do check out the videos hopefully they'll show you some good locations and techniques.
