I rented a cottage near martin river area next month ,just wondering if anyone here has fished it, any info would be great. I have a little too much lake Erie tackle not enough inland lake tackle need to go shopping.

I got a couple 3 lb smallies on 7 colours / blueberry muffin in Beauchene last week. So don't rule out that Erie stuff. Red fins catch anywhere.

I haven’t fished Opee Chee but spent most of my summers on Red Cedar Lake up there. Standard northern stuff should work. jigs,works, harnesses etc
Definitely take a little Erie stuff. Take a drive to “Gramps” just south of Temagami awesome tackle shop with everything you need for the area. Enjoy your time it’s a great area to fish

As in Horizon's North? Went there a few years in a row about 10 years ago. Cabbage in the am with spinners (east end of the lake closest to the cottages). There is a hump off the shoal as you head into the main body of the lake, - drift it. The second island can be productive in wind conditions -and frustrating in calm. The river between the two lakes is productive. Never did manage to crack the second lake. Lots of Marks.
Minnows for bass in tight - everything else was ignored. If you get up early enough - a good chance of seeing moose and this time of year. Used keel weights to get down quickly.
