Lookout Point Camp

This is a fairly large lake, and its waters hold some amazing species of fish. Lake Gowganda is not a round lake. It is long and wide, and the edges are ragged. What this means for fishermen is that the lake offers a plethora of fishing habitats. The shores offer shallow and deep waters. There are shaded pools, quite bays, weedy runs, and inlets where fish love to rest. There are islands out in the lake, a waterfall, and the lake offers a depth of about 200 feet. In these waters, you find Walleye, monstrous Northern Pike, and temperamental Smallmouth Bass. The back lakes are even better. They are fished less often, and the fish there grow larger. If you want to fight a trophy fish, the back lakes are the place to head. You can enjoy the lake on a boat from the lodge, or you can bring your own boat. You can also access the back lakes with boats from the lodge. Plus, they have experienced guides who know every square inch of the lakes, even the back lakes.

Walleye love the bright lures and spinners. Think bright orange, chartreuse, reds, pinks, and even white and black. Northern Pike are a sucker for small mammals and minnows. If you like to fly fish, try a mouse pattern dry fly over a weedy run and hold on to your hat. If the weather is hot, go deep. 30-60 feet you will find the bigger trout and by bigger we mean 10-20 pounds. Are you ready to get fishing? If so, this is a wonderful lodge with plenty of friendly hospitality and all the fishing you can stand.
