About Lake of the Woods...

The name conjures up images of towering pines leaning out over clear blue water. Imagine 14,500 islands and 65,000 miles of shoreline surrounded by remote unspoiled wilderness. The lake is studded with emerald islands. Only a few places feature wide expanses of open water. Navigation is through scenic channels, around large islands and into long bays. This is the treasure that awaits you.

Muskie fishing on Lake of the Woods...

Fishing for muskie on Lake of the Woods, specifically Sabaskong Bay is as good as it gets. It's stained waters are noted for its abundance of muskie and numerous world class trophies, Lake of the Woods still proves to be one of the best waters for trophy musky fishing. Every year proves to be better than the last. Our groups are experiencing greater numbers and better quality fish. Countless fish over 40" are boated on a regular basis and many in the 50" to 55" range. But every now and then guests will come in when only the look in their eye can tell the story of what they had just raised. A fish that  is measured by points in their boat and not the measuring stick. This is what keeps people coming back year after year! So many trophy fish are boated literally within sight of our dock meaning you don't have to travel far for success.  Many outdoor writers believe that the next world record will come out of these waters. If you can wait for late season fishing I strongly recommend September and October. You won't be disappointed!!
