Looking for some Guidance

[First Ice-Mike]

I'd like to plan a trip for 3 or 4 guys to Northwestern Ontario this summer. I'm looking for some awesome walleye fishing, but it would be nice to be within a couple hours of International Falls since I would like to bring my boat. Does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

What is your budget? Month you want to go? Size boat? Do you want a do it yourself, guided, American plan or housekeeping? Do you want some bass fishing or trout available? More details would be helpful.

I have a 17' Lund Explorer. Maybe some pannies or pike would be nice- don't really care about lakers or muskies. We'd like to go for a week in early June. Some kind of American plan would work - doesn't need to be guided. Just looking for a place to catch walleyes I guess. Thanks.

Hi Mike,

Email me at [email protected] and I can give you a few resorts with good walleye fishing. I would give them to you here, but they are not sponsors so I can't post them.

How about Eagle Lake?? There are lots of resorts and some of them are fairly reasonable. Looks like a good bet for some good fishing too. Anyone have any past experience from this lake or any of the resorts on it?

I have never fished Eagle, but have heard mixed reports on the lake as it concerns walleye fishing. If you are going in that direction, look at Lac Seul (just up the road). My crew fishes there and Minnitaki. Minnitaki and Lac Seul are exceptional walleye factories, plus the bonus pike, smallies, and lakers (Minnitaki only).

Bottom line, I think where ever you decide on, you will hit outstanding fishing. It is why we go to Canada every year regardless of cost.

If walleyes are your top concern, Lac Seul is a good walleye fishery.

Check out Pashal lake lodge. They have a walleye trip you can take thats awesome.

Eagle is a very good lake, the new regulations have done a lot to help fishing. I would advise staying on the eastern end if you are after walleyes, there's many main lake reefs that are usually stacked with fish. Check out Evergreen Lodge or Andy Meyers Lodge

Lac Seul or Rainy Lake are both great options for walleyes. Rainy is coming on stronger every year. Some real nice camps on Rainy for a fair price and there are a couple that are very simple and basic, but not costly either. Just depends on what you want. Rainy would be my first pick, shorter drive, excellent fishery, and not as much traffic as Lac Seul(houseboats).

Lac Suel and Rainy are excellent walleye lakes and I've spent many days extracting walleyes from both especially Rainy. However, I would recommend Separation Lake Lodge. It's on the English River, just north of Kenora. The lodge is a boat-in that provides both American Plan and housekeeping. The owners are great and will provide the info and a map to get you going. I gave up on Lac Suel and moved down river after getting tired of getting blown around on the Ear Falls side and having to pay big money on the east side. If you want a nice uncrowded Canadian Lake vacation experience with excellent walleye fishing this is the place.
