Drive In Canadian Fishing Trip

[mrwalleyee]

My father-in-law wants me to find us a nice little lake in Canada to take our trip to this year. I'm looking for something less than 200 miles into Canada. We live in Southern MN and don't want a 15 hour drive. We're looking to spend under $1000. My nephew (10 yr old) will be making his first Canadian trip with us and I want it to be a memerable one. I'm looking for some good pike fishing and he wants good Walleye fishing. Any suggetions would be appreciated. I'm looking for any recommendations, when to go, and websites if available. Thanks in advance. My email is [email protected] if you want to keep it between you and me.

This might be on the border of distance for you but I have been going to the same place for 5 years and I highly reccomend it to anyone. I live in Fridley and it is about a 10 hour drive for us, so I don't know what that would be for you. It is located in NW Ontario, on the Sturgeon River, very nice accomodations, and very reasonabley priced. The guy that runs the place is great, he has become one of my personal friends. If you would like any more info drop me a line and I can point you in the right direction.

A great place to fish for walleye and pike is the Whiteshell Provincial Park in Manitoba (1 1/2 hour drive east of Winnipeg). Crowduck lake is well known for its numerous walleye, many of which are trophy. To get to Crowduck requires a portage in from Big Whiteshell Lake. There is a very good campground at the Big Whiteshell as well as a lodge. Crowduck also offers camping and a lodge as well. If you want to book a trip thru the Crowduck Lodge you have to do so quickly as it books fast. If interested contact Bill Kalinsky 204-222-7307. If your not interested in Crowduck there are numerous other lakes, campgrounds etc in the Whiteshell Provincial Park.

Cedar Point Lodge on Eagle Lake. Great people, nice accomodations and good fishing. Should fit your drive time and price range. Shoot me a message or look at their web site.

Take a good hard look at Muskie Bay Resort. We just got back from a week of fishing there and the resort and lake are awesome!!
Take a look on the Ice Shanty Gang forum for stories about our trip and check out Muskie Bay Resort's HSOforum. It's a top-notch outfit.
