LOON LAKE LODGE

At Loon Lake Lodge you are surrounded by the unspoiled wilderness of the Minnesota north woods. The Gunflint Trail area, where we are located, has changed little over the years. It is much the same as it was over a hundred years ago. The calls of loons, the hoot of owls, the eerie howl of a wolf on a moonlit night and the breeze whispering through the trees will take you back to a much simpler and less hurried time.

The Fishing Season Begins

We have our first fishing type people in camp.  The early reports are the northerns are biting the best!  Lake trout have been harder to come by but some are being caught.  No sign of bass or walleye.  The water is cold with the ice just having gone out on Tuesday and Wednesday.  Surface water temps on the main lake were at 37 degrees.  So the fish aren't too active in the main part of the lake.  The bay is warmer and thus we have seen most fishing done close to the Lodge.

15 lb. 5 oz Lake Trout




Kathy caught this nice trout and along with her husband Tom they landed a number of northerns.  Fishing should improve over the next couple of weeks.  As the water warms the fish will become more active and more likly to take your bait. 


Remember we are still running our Spring specials until June 5th and other than Memorial Weekend there are still openings.  Check us out on the web or give us a call - 1-800-552-6351.
