For several years now my two sons and I have enjoyed canoeing and fishing trips within the interior of this majestic Provincial Park located south of Sudbury Ontario within the rugged wilderness of the Canadian Shield. Our favorite destination in the 645 square kilometre park has been one of the very few lakes there that has a good population of big largemouth bass … with plenty of smallmouth thrown in for heart leaping variety. It takes us several hours and a portage to reach this special lake but like they say, getting there can be half the fun. En route we also make a point to stop and gaze with wanderlust at the majestic Silver Peak – the highest point in the park and easily recognized by the huge slabs of shiny silver quartz rocks that can be seen for miles around.
