If you enjoy water recreation take a long look at the Lakes of the Northwoods area. The network of rivers and trout streams provides some of the finest trout fishing in the state, including Brook, Brown, Rainbow, and Steelhead Trout plus the great Smelt runs in the spring. Most of the lakes are 30 feet deep or less, so temperatures warm early and are very pleasant for swimming, waterskiing and other activities. Boats, motors, jet skis, pontoon and paddle boats are available for rental at area dealers. Ice forms in early December and provides a great source for cold weather sports activities from late December until spring break in mid April.
Ice fishing is spectacular.
The last Saturday in April brings the opening of Trout season and the Smelt runs. All Rights Reserved.
