Lake of the Woods has been stocked weekly to make up for prolonged ice on the lake causing delays in stocking. For recent updates on fishing, you can call the resort at 1-866-201-4194.

Fishing should be excellent this week for hatchery rainbow trout though some reported slow catch rates over the holiday weekend. The lake is dominated by stunted yellow perch. Very small bait and hooks will catch these fish.

You can also visit Lake of the Wood’s website to observe current conditions at the lake.  Scroll down and click on the right side video link for a live video of current conditions on the lake at the Lodge.
