Discovered by French explorer Jacques de Noyon in 1688, Rainy Lake is irregular in shape - stippled with thousands of islands - and rich in history. This extensive region is the site of several Indian reservations and is a popular location for hunting, fishing, hiking and biking. Renting or bringing along a smaller watercraft, such as a fishing boat, is a great way to explore more of the vast and winding waterways these islands create. To experience these scenically rough woodlands at a more peaceful pace consider a canoe instead.

 

 

Those looking to cast while visiting the lake - whether an avid fisher or a first timer - will surely not be disappointed. An abundance of freshwater species reside here - the more well known being Walleye, Crappie, Muskellunge, Northern Pike, Largemouth and Smallmouth bass. With such a wide variety of catch, it comes as no surprise that this lake has been home to the annual Canadian Bass Championship every summer for the past 19 years.
