What kind of Fishing Should I Expect?

The answer to that question depends on the lake that you choose. Many lakes offer good fishing for Lake Trout and Walleyes. Some may have Trophy sized Northern Pike in them. Most will not likely have Smallmouth Bass as those were introduced. Many of the lakes have Whitefish and or Perch. You may also encounter Brook Trout and Muskie.

Many fishermen come to target the Walleye, which are common in the 8-15 inch range, but also reach upwards of 33 inches. Walleyes have a huge mouth and that mouth is for gulping minnows. That is the bait of choice so be prepared to rig a jig with a live minnow if you want to tempt the trophy Walleye to strike your line. If you want to fish for the monsters, those would be the Northern Pike. With a mouth that is full of 700 plus teeth, these fish mean business. Expect to find Northern Pike in the 18-50-inch range and some may weigh 40 plus pounds. When you find a lake with Smallmouth Bass, they range from 10-23 inches.

The big tip for guests of this lodge is to bring a variety of gear. The Lodge will supply most of it, but you might want to target the fish in a different way.
