Fishing Update

The fish bite continues to be strong in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area and surrounding area as summer fast approaches. The season started out with a bang via Lake Trout in shallow waters. Lake Trout appear to be moving into deeper water, but other fishing action is picking up just in time.

Smallmouth fishing has been reported as strong on Rush Lake and Banadad Lake, both of which are an easy trip from Rockwood Lodge & Outfitters.

And while the cool rains subside, walleye action is just heating up in the BWCA. Reports of excellent walleye fishing are coming in from Horseshoe Lake using a spinner and nightcrawler combo. Fishing the north end of the lake was reported as the prime area, though fish can likely be found in other locations and lakes, including Poplar, Vista, Gaskin and Allen.
