What You'll Catch 

Trophy walleye from Dogskin Lake

Walleye

Dogskin Lake is a walleye paradise. Our exclusive water produces consistent catches of 18-24 inch fish with trophy walleye over 28 inches regularly landed. We were among the first lodges in Canada to institute a voluntary catch-and-consume policy in the late 1990s — keep 14-17" walleye for shore lunch, release everything else. That commitment to conservation is why the fishing here stays exceptional year after year.

Northern Pike

Monster northern pike thrive in the bays and weed beds of Dogskin Lake. Trophy pike over 41 inches are caught every season, and our guests regularly land fish in the 35-40 inch range. The abundant forage base produces thick, healthy fish.

Guest Reviews

Don't Take Our Word for It 

Many places throughout Canada would give you great fishing, but we have never been to a place that has the complete package. Great trophy fishing without sacrificing quantity, first class meals and accommodations, and wonderful people.

The owner, staff and accommodations are as good or better than any hunting camp I have been to. I would recommend this trip to anyone looking for a quality experience.

Staff was very friendly and personable. This area was considerably better than most hunting and fishing camps I have visited over the years.
