The tackle box is cleaned out and organized with all your favorite hooks, jigs, and spinners, the rod and reel is ready to go and the boat is in tip-top shape and already hooked up and ready to go. You’re all prepared, but now the big question, which lake will you be fishing? There are 10 lakes in Minnesota Northwoods Country: Andrusia, Big, Big Rice, Blackduck, Cass, Gull, Kitchi, Moose, Pimushe, and Three Island. Which one will you fish?
