What does everyone do? Use an outfitter or call on your own for permit?
We've always used outfitter but usually means we dont get our 1st choice.
Problem is everyone works and really can't take time to call all morning.

I used the recreation . gov website last year. Worked fine for me.

Furious refreshing of the recreation dot gov website beginning at 8:59, then the white knuckled clicking as fast as possible to the EP and dates I want.

Basically same here, though I realize it's not totally necessary, nothing really sold out until at 24 hours later last year, from what I saw at least.

I use the online reservation system as well. I didn't even realize that calling in was still a thing.

You can create your account in advance so you don't need to do that when securing your permit.

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, absolutely beautiful area. Supposed to be a great lake and brook trout fishery as well although I did not fish. Feel free to email me if you have any questions.
