Geocache Description:

Cache #3 of the GREAT FISHING SERIES. Bring fishing tackle for extra fun! Also swimming beach, picnic tables and charcoal grills.

This GREAT FISHING SERIES is intended to present some very good to great fishing locations. Keep in mind, like any
other fisherperson, you will probably get only the very good fishing spots -- we still reserve the right to keep the
SUPER fishing holes as a secret. Nevertheless, if you don't bring fishing equipment (you don't have to), you may well be sorry. These locations may require different types of fishing equipment (noted on the cache page); none of the caches will require any specialized equipment.

These caches are intended for everyone, the roads are suitable for any type of vehicle (mid-winter will pose a huge problem for wheeled vehicles), and are located to avoid long
hikes and/or water crossings. By and large, these caches are located pretty near "the middle of nowhere", and roads
to their access come out somewhere. Getting truly lost should not be an issue.

Autrain Lake is one of the better U.P. lakes for walleye (pickerel). We have seen some spectacular yellow perch pulled from this lake also. Large northern pike are here too. As Autrain Lake has direct access to Lake Superior, you could pull up just about anything!
Of course, a boat is recommended for getting to the good fish, a boat launch is within 200 yards of the picnic area.

The cache itself is located in what should be a muggle-free area. It is a camo Loc-n-Loc w/logbook and writing implement as well as decent swag.

NOTE: coordinates are averaged, due to heavy canopy.
