Fishing with Brown Bear Lake Outpost

Guests fish from 16-foot Lund boats with pedestal seats that swivel and that are powered by new Yamaha motors. The boats come with life jackets, landing nets, bait buckets, and paddles. The lodge also flies in every other day to check in on guests.

Fishing here allows guests to target Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, Northern Pike, and Lake Trout .

If you like to fish for Lake Trout, then head to Beauty Lake, which is a portage lake. There is also ample opportunity to pound Smallmouth Bass if you find the shallow beds, especially early in the season. Bass here is good the biggest one thus far is 20 inches. The biggest Walleye reach 29 inches, and the biggest Northern Pike was 40 inches in length. If you fish early in the season, target the shallows that are close to shore and in the quiet bays. That water warms up quickly and the fish will move to those areas. Warmer water means plenty of food and in the early season, the fish are hungry.

If you want an outstanding place to enjoy a fishing vacation then head over to Brown Bear Lake Outpost. Visit the Canada Outfitters - Brown Bear Outpost page for additional info as well.
