Been to Thistle (Island) Lake or Red Cedar Lake north of North Bay?

Hi

Looking at going to a place on either Thistle Lake or Red Cedar Lake (this Spring) and was wondering about others experiences there.

They are part of the same system but Red Cedar is 10x larger and much deeper. Looks to me like they would be quite different.

If you have been there would Thistle have enough structure/shoreline for five or so days of fishing? Would Red Cedar be better for that length of time?
If you have fished both what choice would you make?

We would be primarily after Bass and Pike.

Thanks
