It will be a challenge to get 5 guys out of Beaver Cove on one sled, but you should try if possible. Trailer to the Lilly Bay launch if you can, it will shorten the run to deeper, less heavily pressured water around Sugar Island. I like the south and west shore. Be aware that you can't ice fish a large area between Lilly Bay and Sugar Island (new rule).Anywhere there are humps or dropoffs near deep water are a good place to target togue, the lake has a lot of them. Find humps 30-40 feet and there will probably be some togue lurking. Brookies are hit and miss, shallow water around rocks or a stream is a good place to look. It's a big lake so what looks like a small area on a chart can be pretty big.
thank you for your reply, we can make a couple trips and get to the S/W side Sugar island pretty easily. We also want to get into the cusk, i assume those can be targeted in the same area as the lakers? Do they feed much during the day this that time of the year?
in the right spots 3-6lb cusk all evening isn't uncommon.
