Hello,

I am heading up to the UP near Escanaba for the 4th of July. Wondering if it is worth trailering the boat up with the musky gear in it or just the walleye and bass stuff. The wifes relatives live on Little Bay Da Noc so would be heading out from that area. Would like to try something in the area, hour or so drive. If someones has some ideas, please pm me or send me an email at [email protected].

Thanks
Jason

I'm not aware of too much muskie fishing near Escanaba. There is some pretty good options if you drive a couple hours west though.

I fished a Lake called Emily 8 years ago, actually it was a pretty good action lake for a guy who owned about 15 lures at the time. it was about a hour east(guess)of Escanaba. I also loved the dirt track races in the old fairgrounds at Norway Mi. on Wednesdays. Do they still have them ?

Emily is west of Escanaba. Good lake. Very weedy.
