Default Iosegun or Smoke Lake in June?

Hey Guys and Gals
I'm planning on doing a fishing/bear hunting trip the first week of June, between these two which one would you pick based on campground and fishing?

No idea about campground, but I would pick up my walleye tags for Iosegun to add an element to the trip...

Used to go there yrs ago but had bad experiences with theft so I will no longer camp there. Tie it down well whatever you do.

Default Iosegun Lake

Good fishing in both lakes, I personally prefer the campground at Iosegun, stalls are a little bigger and more level than at smoke lake. Smoke is more popular for the tubing/water ski-crowd. Have been camping at Iosegun every summer since i was a kid, only thing that we ever had stolen was a cooler. Wouldnt say there is any more chance of being robbed than at any other campground.

Cheers

this, unfortunately, is the reality everywhere now. If it can walk away, it will.

I was leaning towards Iosegun as it does have undersubscribed walleye tags every year (Class C). Thanks for the help guys! It's a little far away to do a day scouting trip for me so it's truly appreciated.

Just based on roads when it rains, I would pick Isogun. The smoke lake road when it's wet is absolutely horrible. Wouldn't want to be trying to get out of there with a big unit without some beefy tires and possibly chains lol
