| Season: mid May to late September |
| Requirements: Fishing license,fishing gear and equipment. Rods: We always advise you to bring the rod and reel that you feel most comfortable using. Casting and spinning are the most popular and we always recommend medium to light action rods because they seem to allow the best action and hook setting ability.
Reels: Drag setting of your reel is what we feel is the most important feature that helps you bring in that big catch. We don’t recommend a certain manufacturer or type of reel, as long as your reel has a good drag system that allows for smooth release of your line throughout the range of the reels drag settings, and allows for easy setting of the drag.
Line & Line test: As far as what’s most popular, it seems to always be 6# or 10# test. If casting with larger lures many use 14# or 17# line.
Lures: We always try to suggest to bring what tackle you already have but wait until you arrive at our lodge to stock your supply. We will always know what the fish seem to be hitting at the time, and rest assure we stock every kind there is. Our bait is some of the best to ensure a very successful fishing adventure.
