Location: Lake Elmo, MN | Lake of the Woods is BIG water in more than one way. In one sense it's big in variety of types of water. In Minnesota you have huge open water and that would be tough for your boat. In sections of Canada (say Sioux narrows for example) there are a myriad of places to tuck in if wind and waves get tough. Just be sure to stay within easy reach of lodging. Getting a different boat for 1 trip makes little sense. In Canada and the US, when the winds pick up, the water becomes VERY dangerous, especially where large open expanses are. Be very careful. Had a friend lose his bass boat there.....sunk right to the bottom. Thankfully, he was OK. Be smart....wear your PFD, and don't push the limits of your rig....you should be fine. |
