Lac Suel Reports - Mahkwa Lodge

[Wilderness55]

A few of us are heading up to Mahkwa Lodge on Lac Suel early next week for our annual trip. Just wondering what the fishing has been like the last couple of weeks near there. I believe Vaughn Lake is opening today (6/16)?

I know Lac Suel Outfitters (is this Ojibwa Outfitters?) is quite a bit more north from Mahkwa and was wondering if anyone had reports more in the area that we will be fishing. Thanks everyone!

Wilderness55,
I am leaving Saturday for Mahkwa, Will be there Sunday through Thursday in housekeeping cabins there are 13 of us. This is my 8 year fishing out of Mahkwa and I am set to return after this trip, on July 2nd for another 5 day trip with my Dad. I have heard a lot of different things about the fishing. It seems as though it has been slower than usual, but even a slower Lac Seul is incredible. Look for me and the Gang, our group is primarily made up of Gander Mountain Managers and Former Alaskan Guides. Not professed as being the greatest Walleye anglers in the world but we catch or share. I run a Warrior 1890SC Eagle. Stop by and say hello! We will help you if we can.
Best of luck,
Spike

Hey Spike-
Sounds good. We're leaving Monday and are going to be there from Tuesday thru Saturday. Good times up at Lac Suel and Mahkwa. We usually stay in the motel type units over by the lodge. There is four of us this year. We have a 20.5 blue Crestliner with an O/B Honda. Have a good one and good luck. I'm counting down the hours of work....

wilderness,

Try trolling shadraps in front of the big sand dune on the island across from the resort(you'll see it). Can be awesome if the wind is blowing in.

Good Luck,

Dave

Well, our trip was a success considering the on again off again weather. We caught a lot of walleyes with the biggest being 24", but many in the 20-23" range. We also caught two 41" pike in a 30 minute period. Great times at Mahkwa once again and am looking forward to next year's trip already.
