There’s nothing like the experience of a Boundary Waters fishing trip. Whether you’re seeking the evenings dinner or the catch of a lifetime, Boundary Waters Outfitters is here to help make your wilderness fishing trip a reality.
Many wilderness travelers seek the Boundary Waters for the unparalleled fishing opportunities found here. In early spring the cool, clean waters of these northern shield lakes are teeming with tackle busting fish. Walleye, Northern Pike, Smallmouth Bass, Lake Trout and slab sized pan fish are all available in bountiful numbers. It’s not just the spring that offers great fishing, these Boundary Waters lakes and rivers offer excellent fishing opportunities all season long. In fact, some of our best catches have come during the summer and fall months. Whatever the time of your visit, if fishing is a priority we will put you on the best lakes for your wilderness fishing trip.
Fly Fishing
The Boundary Waters has some amazing opportunities for topwater fly fishing. While we do have a few lakes offering stream trout (mostly Brookies) the main fly fishing activity lies with our Smallmouth Bass and Northern Pike. Just be prepared to throw some big flies! A 9-10ft 8wt rod with weight forward line is ideal.
