Fishing with Ruffo's Sportsman Lodge

This is trophy fish country and McIntosh Lake has both Trophy Walleye and Trophy Northern Pike. This is also a catch and release lodge and because of their conservation efforts, the lake is full of Trophy fish. This is one of the reasons that the lodge has such a high rate of repeat guests - the fishing just gets better each year.

Guests fish from Lund boats and every fishing trip is fully guided. The guide ratio is one guide per two fishermen. What is beautiful about McIntosh Lake is that is offers a wide diversity of fishing opportunities. There are the quieter places where the big Northern Pike like to lurk and the heavy action places amid the whitewater riffle zones where you can battle big Trophy Walleye. All the while you fish you are surrounded by the most amazing natural and scenic vistas. This is definitely a place that people who love to fish should venture.
