CROSS LAKE – N46° 53.926’ W79° 58.686’

This week’s Hotspot is a protected bay on Cross Lake which can be accessed via Lake Temagami. The waypoint on your screen will get you there.

Although Smallmouth prevail here, an incidental Lake Trout or Pike is a welcome bonus.
Try a topwater or jerkbait on calm days and follow that up with a drop shot rigged shad or minnow imitation.

Take care when navigating Cross Lake as it is yet (as of this writing) to be charted on Navionics Maps.
