i haven't gone that far north but from what i've heard either one will give an unforgetable trip. i'll talk to my uncle who spent a week on gods lake and see what he has say about the place :D
" oh we didn't sink the bismarck, and we didn't fight at all, we spent our time in Norfolk and we really had a ball. chasing after women while our ship was overhauled, living it up on grapefruit juice and sick bay alcohol"

Amoses, are you still needing info? If so, let me know as i have been to Gods Lake (Healeys Lodge) several times (although not for a couple of years).

This will be our 9th year to Harrop Lake in Northern Manitoba.  It's an unguided outpost run by Thunderbird Lodge.  The walleye fishing is unbelievable, it's not usual for a boat to bring in 60-80 walleye in a day.  The northern fishing is fair, but that may be because of the time of year (first week in june).  We always catch a handful over 40 inches and several 35-40.  The Thunderbird people run several outposts and full-service lodges, and are very very good people.  I could come up with a phone number and references if you would like, they have a web page i'm sure you could google.
