Hey Seaman,
I was into Lac blu and Desjardins about three weeks ago and I gotta say that the fishing is nothing short of spectacular. Desjardins is loaded with Walleye and most of them are blue. I caught close to 50 in a day and a half. Look for submerged islands of rocky points and other islands above water. Jigging the edges produced a lot of fish. We launched from the end of the lake with the trailer park. There is great fishing in the first bay straight across from the launch trolling with perch wally divers. The best bite was in the second lake (if you've never been there it is 3 lakes connected). If you go all the way through the first lake you will come to a channel that is very narrow at one point only maybe enough to get a boat through. Depending on your rig you might have to watch you're trim a little bit but we got through with a 16ft starcraft with a 90 on it just fine. Once you get through ( don't be afraid to giver gas as there is a strong current) try jigging the both sides of the current and the rock walls. We caught quite a few there using green yum walleye grubs and 7 inch tequilas with about an inch of the head and the tail both texas rigged. Also try yellow or green gulp shads with a twister tail and a yellow jig head with a spinner arm. We used these combos all over and they worked like a charm. There is also a submerged point in the second lake where it opens up that produced the majority of the around 150 walleye we managed over our stay. It goes from about 25-30 to 14-10 and then back down. As far as blue goes we fished for 3 hours on our way out and 8 guys filled their limits in the first two hours. We were using steel and riggers in anywhere from 60 to 110 feet of water. They seem to like green and orange decaled silver spoons and we hit them 25 to 70 feet down. There are also speckles along most of the shore line. Look foe an island with a big antenna on it. Anywhere around there in the depths I mentioned produced Lakers. Oh and I forgot to mention, in Desjardins keep a big net handy because we had big northern pike hit walleye hooked near the surface on more than one ocassion. You'd be reeling in, a walleye would hit and then wham, a pike would jump on it. If you're fast the locals there say they've netted a few while they were still holding on to the pickeral. I almost did but the pike let go at the last second. I must have hit him in the head with the net.Sorry to be so long winded but there was a lot of good things to say about these lakes. All in all we had one helluva trip. Good luck and I hope this helps a bit, even though my directions aren't the best.
