Why are our fishermen so successful? The secret lies in the large variety of species in a lot of different lakes. One may not be working that day but another will be ready and willing for action. Knowing when and where to go is our job and we take it very seriously. Your goal is to catch fish and we will help it happen.
Lost Lake
All the cottages and the main lodge are located along almost 1000 feet of shoreline on beautiful Lost Lake. This main lake is the first place to start fishing while honing your skills for the many other lakes yet to be explored. Most folks will fish for pike and small mouth bass during the day time and save the walleye fishing experience until after supper. Bass are easily caught in late day too using surface tackle rather than spoons or spinners preferred during the day time.
The range in depth is from 12 feet to 40 feet on average. There are spots where the bottom comes within five feet of the surface and are excellent places for walleye fishing late day.
Lost Lake itself is the staging point to access many more lakes and is considered the most important lake to learn. From Lost Lake, people gain access to Dinny and Hodge lakes as well as two "walk to" trout lakes and another walleye and pike lake to the south.
Dinny Lake
Dinny Lake is the middle lake on your way north to Hodge lake. It's average depth is 40 feet with some places much shallower, good for jigging for walleye on an overcast day or especially after supper fishing. Dinny is about two and a half miles long and nearly three quarters of a mile wide at it's widest. Lost Lake flows into the south end of Dinny. This is probably the best walleye and bass fishing spot for after supper fishing. Three species are available in Dinny with Walleye and bass being the main ones. Pike are here too but not in the numbers or size of some of the other lakes.
The creek flows to Hodge Lake at the north end of Dinny and this is the access waterway to Hodge. While boating north from Dinny, there is a marked landing where you park then walk around a beaver dam and rapids to more boats and motors. Gas is brought with you in a small wheel barrow or wagon to make the five minute walk even easier.
Hodge Lake
This six plus mile long lake is surely one of the best northern pike lakes in the north. For nearly two decades our guests have fished using "Catch and Release" technics only. Virtually every fish taken has been put back into the lake, after the much revered "Smiley face" photograph to prove that such monsters still do exist.
Calcite Lake
This lake is about a mile and a half long and quite narrow in some spots. It has proven to be a very good lake for both walleye and pike. It's an easy walk to lake at the end of a short trail. In wet weather you'll need weatherproof footwear because there are some soggy spots en route. Gas must be hand carried but a part tank will keep you fishing all day.
Leta Lake
Speckled trout are in good supply in this very clear lake. Specs are also called Brook Trout by our southern United States neighbors. The walk in is about half an hour but the first time in will require a bit more time. The trail is well signed with teaching plaques all along the way. Learn about everything from moose, wolves and black bear to flora indiginous to the region.
Sigs Lake
This speckled (brook) trout lake is about a half hour walk from the landing in Lost Lake with a well marked trail all the way. The best fishing is from shore in several distinct spots.
Flatstone Lake
This Rainbow trout lake is just beautiful with maybe the most difficult to catch strain of trout around. A really good day is possibly three trout per person but the experience will never be forgotten.
Leroy Lake
Small mouth bass are in great supply in this lake. It can be reached easily by car or if you'd like, we will drive you there and pick you up again for a small fee.
Everett Lake
Both pike and bass abound in this long thin lake. Again, it is easily reached by car or we will take you there and pick you up for a small fee.
Miller Lake
Miller is all about lake trout. A difficult lake to fish unless you know the secrets. We will take you there and pick you up for a small fee or you can come and go using your own vehicle.
