Trophy Perch can also be found on the river. While not as common as the trophy Northern Pike, or Walleye, trophy Perch can be found on the river with the largest to date being 15.36 inches weighing in at 3.6 lbs.
Now while other lodges boast that they catch and release 50 inch Northern Pike year after year, we also have caught and released our share of 50 inch Northern Pike. The only difference is while they have 800+ fishermen searching for the 50 inch Northern Pike each year, we only have 160 fishermen searching. Where do you think you stand a better chance of catching a trophy of a lifetime?
For the Fly-Fisherman, mid to late June is when you have the chance to catch trophy White Fish. Just 100 yards from our dock, you are able to stand on our sandy point, and watch as hundreds of White Fish feed on May Flies. This opportunity to catch that master White Fish lasts only a week or so. While fishing for White Fish, you will notice that many Northern Pike are also feeding on these White Fish. This gives you the opportunity to hook on to a master Northern Pike with your fly rod, and might I say let the real battle begin!
