Fishguts thanks for the invite to this private board. I'll post my question again for the folks on here....
Will be on Conmee for the day in a couple of weeks and wondering if anyone can share insight on what to use and where for some decent sized walleyes? Strictly catch/release. Doing my best to make this one time visit memorable so any tips are greatly appreciated.

I have not had much luck on Conmee, but I will send you some info on where you might try. Suzanette has been my lucky lake.:-)

We did alright on the east end of Conmee trolling Little Joe type spinners with black gulp leeches and gulp emerald shad.

It's not a very pretty lake and the campsites kind of suck, but if you're only there one day (as were we) it's tolerable.

We did OK here camped 2 nights at the 4* on the south end near the Brent portages but the fish were few and far between but big... we did best on the sinking rattle traps. my bro caught this nice fish near the middle lake small islands. I would not expect a lot of fish if you go and key is to fish the low light hours. I also caught a huge pike here I was in 1 man canoe tough to get a good photo but it was a shark.

When are you going to be there? We should be in the area June 15 - 18th but not sure if we will make it back to Conmee.... I love catching big walleye but that lake is tought to get to and just does not offer up much else.

It's an easy day trip from Suz or Brent. Suz and Brent both have great campsites.
