World Class Trophy Fishing

Unlike many lakes where you have to choose either good action or trophy size, Scott Lake offers both. It's not uncommon here to land 50 to 100 fish a day for a single boat, and we've had more than a few with well over 100 fish in a day. And with some of those in the trophy class, fishing just doesn't get much better anywhere in the world.

Trophy fish are common at Scott. We consider a pike a trophy if it measures 40" or lake trout a trophy if it measures 35" or more and a grayling a trophy if it measures 15" or more. Every year our guests land over 1000 trophies. We don't even keep track of the "small" ones weighing between 10 and 18 lbs. And you don't have to fly out or spend hours getting to the fish. In fact, a number of the best lake trout spots on the entire lake are within sight of the Lodge. We've had a 46" trout and a 50" pike caught within a 15 minute boat ride from our dock. With access to Scott, Premier and Wignes lakes - all connected, you can fish 250,000 acres of private water and follow 500 miles of shoreline. That is a lot of room to roam. Typically you will spend 6 to 8 hours fishing not cruising around the lake.
