I've been to Mary Lake and Caesar's a few times and I rate it as a wonderful experience...Oliver is a great host and Benny was great at Caesar's(I think he may have passed away since my last visit)......I have caught pike up to 20 pounds but most were between 5 and 10 and the good old fashioned daredevil in red/white stripe and also the orange with the red diamonds on it were good solid consistent producers....Also, Mepps Inline Spinners in size 4 and 5 with white bucktail trebles were the ticket as well.......Walleye were abundant also along weed edges and jigging split tail Mister Twister type baits in white and yellow killed them....we ate pike and walleye for a week, saw bears, moose and other wildlife.....Boats w/ gas motors are included so you can start early and fish whatever suits you best, come in for lunch and have fresh fish, take a nap and them fish late afternoon until after dark...It was great....went up with 6 guys who were all avid outdoorsman and all we did for a week was fish fish and fish...I have so many pics to remember how nice it was...If I find some , I'll post if you want....it's beautiful up there.....any other questions, feel free to ask and I'll try to help......http://www.marylakeoutfitter.com/
