Good maps for Rainy Lake...Canada side ?

[crawler catcher]

Need good maps for Rainy. Do you have a site for these ? Also, your best pick for lodges for the NW or NE side.

Thanks

Camp Narrows is in the Northwest Arm, which is at the far west end of the lake. About 15 miles west and 15 miles east from Fort Frances. Boat in facility. About a 7 mile boat ride from ramp to camp. There is also a camp right next to the C.N. dock, but I can't remember the name for sure-maybe Labelles?

I have the Canadian published map at home at will post the map number this evening.

Fished out of Camp Narrows twice. Send me a pm if you need more info.

Do you have a GPS unit that accepts map chips?

I stay 1 -2 weeks in a year in the Northwest Bay area.


I'll share my thoughts on spots, lodges,etc if you send me a PM.

6106. It covers Northwest Bay to Woodchuck Island on the east; North including Alexandria Bay, Ash Bay, and Paddy Bay.

As with JDP, you can PM me, if you register.

I've stayed at Camp Narrows the past 2 years during the 3rd week of June. As Nimstug stated you should consider map 6106, I also have 6107. We used both maps these past two years. If you do most of your fishing in Northwest Bay you can get by with just 6106. You can check out all of the maps for LOTW and Rainy on page 39 of the following document. The maps are about $20 each.

If you attend any of the All-Canada shows a representative from Canada Map Sales will have the Rainy maps on hand for sale. I purchase my newer waterproof maps at the show in St Charles, Illinois two years ago to replace the old paper maps I purchased years ago. If you have a GPS unit for your boat I would consider the Lakemaster LOTW map. I purchased the Navionics LOTW + 2K map two years ago and used both chips last year. The Lakemaster map was much more detailed. Both maps include all of Rainy.

Good Luck
