BOUNDARY WATERS BASS by Larry Dahlberg

Timber Trail Lodge: World Class Fishing For Bronzebacks....   And More!

Back to Timber Trail Lodge in the Media

 

The Boundary Waters Canoe Area near Ely, Minnesota, offers some of the world's best small-mouth bass fishing. You have a good shot at a 5- or 6-pound bass; and with decent weather, you'll catch more 3- to 4-pound small-mouths than you can imagine. Then too, don't miss overlooked opportunities for big walleyes, lake trout, and pike.

But doesn't a trip to the BWCA mean paddling and sleeping in a tent?

Yes, if that's what you want. But Timber Trail Outfitters also specialize in day trips, and they offer reasonably priced lakeshore cabins for those who'd rather sleep in a real bed. I also like the way they work waters where boats and motors are legal-fish in the com- fort of your fully rigged boat.

Other interesting wrinkles include brook and rainbow trout in out-of-the'-way lakes adjacent to their lodge. One of the best-kept secrets is a muskie lake about half an hour away.
