Baudette Minnesota Lake of the Woods Fishing Resorts


Baudette Minnesota Lake of the Woods Fishing Resorts

Sportsman's has Three Locations in the One and Only Walleye Capital of the World.


fishingAlongside the nation's fifth largest lake, the Lake of the Woods is the Walleye Capital of the World. Catching fish here is easy because we take care of everything: accommodations, meals,  licenses, rods and reels, bait, tackle, fish cleaning and our guides will put you on the fish (and tell good stories too)! All you have to do is show up!

Just south of the U.S. and Canada line is a Walleye, Muskie, Sauger, Northern Pike, Perch, Crappie and Rock Bass feeding frenzy. When you visit any of Sportsman's three locations; Sportsman's Rainy River, Eagle Ridge and Oak Island, regardless of the season, temperature, barometric pressure or any other factors...the Minnesota fishing here is legendary. From one season to another the only thing that changes is our approach, but the results are the same at Sportsman's in Minnesota, a great catch!

When you're here hauling in Walleye after Walleye, you'll see quickly why this is the The Walleye Capital of the World. There are also plenty of Muskie, Sauger, Northern Pike, Perch and Rock Bass depending on which location or time of year you choose to come.

Lake of the Woods Minnesota Fishing Resorts


Imagine spending the day bobbing along the waves; just you and five of your favorite friends, soaking up the sun, spending a summer day in style on a charter out of Sportsman's Lodge on Minnesota's Lake of the Woods. Nothing can compare to Minnesota fishing, with Walleyes, Saugers, and Lake Sturgeon a plenty! 

• No experience or equipment required!

• Rods, reels, bait, tackle, and 12 pack assorted pop and water are provided.

• Fish cleaning is also provided for your convenience and they are delivered right to your room.

• Comfortable 27' Sportscraft with on board restroom, cabin cutty and covered top.

When you hit the lake with the Sportsman's guides service, you're benefiting from over 200 years of combined experience. The Sportsman's Guides know where to find the fish on Lake of the Woods, and they know how to navigate the sometimes tricky waters of the big lake. And with over 14,500 islands, 65,000 miles of shoreline, and nearly one million acres of water, it's a good idea to have someone on board who knows where they're going on the international waters of Lake of the Woods.

Oak Island Lodge

38 miles from the Main Lodge is the secluded Oak Island Lodge. It's on the same island as our Eagle Ridge Lodge. It's not uncommon to see bear, moose or a whitetail deer swimming when you're out fishing. If you like nature, you're going to love our Oak Island lodge.

This undisturbed remote island is a place where nature thrives. It's filled with bald eagles, deer, bear and the fishing is undoubtedly world class. In this part of the Lake of the Woods, there is abundant population of Walleye, Sauger, Northerns, Muskies, Smallmouth Bass, Perch, and big Slab Crappies. Minnesota's Department of Natural Resources has determined this to be a World-Class Fishery.
