Trophy Walleyes…Good Eating Walleyes…we got them all.Some of the most prized fishing months are soon upon us, September and October. Come on up and get in on some pole bending action as the weather starts to cool.

We are roughly 4 weeks out from the legendary “Emerald Shiner Run” which normally occurs in late September on the Rainy River and Four Mile Bay. This event normally brings in thousands of walleyes to the Rainy River as they chase the shiners upstream. Get your reservations in now and take advantage of $39 per person lodging special. Good fishing, good food, indoor pool, hot tub and entertainment await you.
