  • Join Portage Mule on our trip to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area through the Mudro #22/23 entry point in September 2022. We paddle and portage through Mudro, Sandpit, Tin Can Mike, Basswood and finally to Crooked Lake along the United States/Canada border! We spend a week at our campsite between Wednesday Bay and Thursday Bay and fish sun up to sundown.
    This is just the first part our trip and takes viewers through our paddle in, camp set up, and getting out on the water fishing!
    We hope to see you back for the next part as the temperature cools down...and the walleye bite heats up!

    Boundary Waters camping trip, featuring BWCA Boundary Waters Canoe Area wilderness fishing in Ely, Minnesota. We loved visiting the BWCA - Boundary Waters Canoe Area for great Walleye, Northern and Smallmouth fishing, as well as camping, and canoeing. In this video, you will see us planning, preparing, canoeing, camping and fishing in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in Northern Minnesota. My Brother Ben and I take 4 friends for the first time to experience the BWCA and we document our trip from fishing, cooking on the open fire, gear we use, and being out on the water fish we catch Walleye, Northern and Small Mouth Bass. Being under the moon and stars watching amazing sunsets and moonrises was one of the highlights of this trip.
    The BWCA Boundary Waters Canoe Area is an amazing wilderness area with lakes, streams, and forested hills. This is a great place for fishing and camping. You can also go canoeing or kayaking in the many lakes of this region. The BWCA provides many opportunities for outdoor recreation in Minnesota. The Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW) is a publicly accessible wilderness area. It is the most heavily used wilderness area in the contiguous United States with approximately 250,000 visitors each year.
    The BWCAW is located in northeastern Minnesota and measures about 350,000 acres in size; it is bounded on the north by Jackfish Lake, on the south by Little Indian Sioux River, on the west by Gunflint Lake and on the east by Quetico Provincial Park of Canada. The Boundary Waters Canoe Area is one of America’s best-loved wildernesses, with more than 1 million acres of forests guarded by state law against development or logging. Visitors can enjoy hiking on 200 miles of trails in summertime when they are not exploring by canoe or kayak.
    The BWCA is a life-changing place. It’s about family and friends, and the wilderness and the waters and the sky. It’s about getting back to nature and living off the land for a few days. It’s about canoeing miles of rivers, exploring lakes, cooking over campfires, telling stories around those same campfires after fishing all day long, or climbing trestles high above the waterfalls plunging into deep gorges.
    BWCA in Ely, Minnesota is a chain of lakes and waterways that spans across the border between the United States and Canada. This region has been inhabited by humans for many years and it attracts many visitors and tourists every year. The area features a series of interconnected lakes, ponds, rivers, and streams that starts in Duluth, Minnesota and stretches to Canada. The region has been inhabited by humans for centuries and attracts many visitors annually.
    This beautiful region is considered to be one of the most scenic areas in North America. Fishing, hunting, and wildlife viewing are popular activities for visitors to do while they are here. The Boundary Waters is a remote, but beautiful wilderness area. This National Wilderness Area in Minnesota is the largest lake-land wilderness in the country. It has been preserved by Congress and designated a National Scenic Area under the Wilderness Act of 1964, which prohibits most activities including roads and logging. The BWCA surrounds 1,000 lakes and contains over 1 million acres of forested land with over 1,000 miles of canoe routes.

      Yes, you bring up a great point. I think most people in the BWCA understand how to be a good steward of the land. It certainly is a draw of being out in the wilderness

      Thank you!
      We got small and medium leeches at Vados just north of Minneapolis months earlier and kept them alive in a fridge.
      Then we bought more large leeches at Arrowhead Outdoors in Ely the day we entered.

      Thank you! I don’t know if we mentioned it in this video, but we have in previous ones, we use a basketball hoop net that is closed together on either end with carabiners. That way we don’t have to bring in any extra weight and we can just put rocks inside the net and adjust how heavy it needs to be based on the wind

      It was sad to see. Rob and I typically pack up at night and understand leaving the odd tent stake or tie down. But this was something else entirely. We had camped there a few months earlier so we knew the damage had just been done.
