Ice Fishing
Lake Winnibigoshish or Big Winnie as it is know to most, boasts some of the countries' finest perch fishing. The size and quanity of these fish is virtually unmatched. Winnie also delivers good catches of Northern Pike both by angling and spearing. Walleyes are caught, but not with the consistency of the northerns and perch.
Perch fishing on Winnie is very simple. Early in the season , the fish relate to the structure (sand bars), where later in the season they tend to roam the flats. The key is to move until you locate active fish. The method of catching perch varies greatly. Most people use some form of flasher and a minnow. If you find fish it really doesn't matter what you use! Fish houses are available to rent in the area. We carry licenses but no live bait. A heated cleaning facility is available for your use. The Four Seasons is located on the Mississippi River which is not safe for vehicle travel. There are plowed roads on the lake that you can access via other resorts. Snowmobiles and ATV's can access the lake near the resort without the aid of plowed roads. You should call ahead to get the latest ice conditions before arrival to plan accordingly.
