[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 297235, member: 3373"] Forgot one. If you're interested in hiking something a little different, more wilderness type, just a little east of Hwy 281 that goes to the Peace Gardens, there is the Wakopa Game Management area. About 5000 acres owned by G&F along Hwy 43. There are many miles of hiking trails through the Turtle Mts. Definitely chances of seeing ruffed grouse, some turkeys, deer, perhaps a moose, beaver and lots of different birds. Trails are basically cleared (depending on how long ago they were cleared) trails. Very much a nature walk. As far as fishing in the Turtle Mts, there are a lot of smaller lakes that hold fish. Walleyes are not high on the list of most of those lakes. At times you will catch some but those hill lakes just don't support a good population of walleyes consistently. However, pike, perch, bluegills, a couple trout lakes provide some very good fishing. And a lot of those lakes are not as busy with boat traffic as Metigoshe, especially during the weekend. Buegills have done very well in several lakes and can provide a lot of entertainment for kids especially. Hell, even I enjoy bluegill fishing. They fight very well for their size and are good eating.
