Hello all i am new to your MB but am a avid musky hunter.
Around 1986 and 87 I went to lake Wabigoon in Ontario. While there we stayed at a resort called Muskybay lodge. Well i have searched the web the last 3 days trying to find this resort in hopes of going back some day, But as of now i can not find this resort. I had heard that there was a bad storm, Tornado like around 1989 or 90 that might have taken down a few lodges.. was wondering if anyone hs seen or been to this lodge and if they would have any info for me plz... thx for any help

Did some web searching for you, the best I can tell is that there isnt a MuskyBay resort on Wabigoon. From what I know there are only 3 resorts on the Goon to chose from....and by the way, MuskieFIRST is running an outting on one of them (Indian Point Camp, http://www.indianpointcamp.com) in July of this year (plug plug). The man to ask about the older resorts is Steve Worrall, who might be around this site at some point soon.

I may be wrong on this but I believe it may still be there. At least there is one of those blue signs with Muskie Bay Resort on it along HWY 17. If I am thinking correctly, it is on the same road (Muskimerk Rd) as Merkels Camp, which is where we stay. Can't say I've ever seen a Muskie Bay resort boat on the lake, but I never pay much attention to stuff like that. I do remember seeing a resort that was deserted, which was located on the north side of the channel between Wabigoon and Dinorwic. It was set up on a hill looking to the west and I believe all the buildings where white or light colored. It could possibly have been Muskie Bay but I am not sure. Have stayed at both Indian Pt. and Merkels and liked them both. If you like the eastern half of the lake I would recommend Merkels based on my personal experiences.

Hope this helps a little,

toddb
