Fox Den on Dog Lake

Looking for fisshing reports at Fox's Den in Sept, headed up in a few weeks.
Anybody spend time up there in Sept in the past? How was the fishing?
Anybody been there this year?
Seems like a big lake, do you have to travel far for fish?

Appreciate the help.

This was our 1st trip to Dog Lake, in June. Ice out was late this year so the water was still cold (58 deg F) and the May fly hatch was in full swing. Most of our fish were caught on bottom bouncers with a silver spinner blade and a worm. Nothing on spoons or rapalas.
Emily Bay and Core Shack Bay seemed to be the most popular areas.
Our best were a 6 1/2 lb Laker and a 6 lb Walleye. Had one fry and brought a couple home. Not a great week, but we will give it another shot next year. Marked lots of fish around most shoals, but couldn't put them in the boat.
The road into Missinabie is hard surfaced and in good shape.
Good luck and give us a report when you get back.

GavorLake - very informative response, thanks for sharing all your wisdom.

Frank - appreciate the reply, looking forward to the trip, will definately report.

Hi Canada Dave:

Just returned from Dog Lake. Most people catching early in morning around shoals. Plain worm on hook seemed to be working for most. Hard work to catch fish as people had favourite spots, 'camped' on them early and sat.

Could you please tell me where Fox Den is on Dog Lake? We saw Ernie's and Northern Cottages, as well as one that was closed down (Pioneer?) and Island View off on the Renabie Road a few klicks away.

I did not see Foxes Den, either, but there were a couple of camps, that we could not see any signs on them. We stayed at Northern Walleye Camp, used to be Camp Missanabie. Good camp, good equipment, clean and everything worked, reasonable price, owned by a young couple, Warren and Michelle. I would recommend it.
Also, stay alert on the road. We saw moose, bear, wolves and Sandhill cranes. Also, on the lake, itself, we got checked out everyday, by the eagles.
