Steverino, one thing I think you'll discover is that a canoe is not the best boat to fish a big reservoir- a bass boat is ideal for that. Nor is a canoe the best tool for salmon fishing on the Great Lakes.
What a canoe excels at is getting into water that big boats can't reach: either too far back from the road, or too shallow and obstructed.
The boundary waters are a fine example of 'too far from the road'.
But, you don't need to wait for that once a year trip. Start thinking of the places around home that have swamps, shallow areas, etc. Places you could never get a motorboat, you can often get a canoe easily.
There are lots of fish that see very few fishermen in some of those places.
