Minnesota Fishing Resort
Bearskin Lodge

A Gunflint Trail fishing destination since 1925


East Bearskin is a beautiful Canadian Shield lake that supports excellent populations of walleye, northern pike, smallmouth bass, and lake trout. There is a variety of structure on the north side of the lake and several deep drops on the south side. East Bearskin Lake is 4 miles long, with the far east end inside the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. (There is a motor limit of 25 hp inside the BWCAW.)  A number of other nearby lakes with excellent fishing can be accessed from East Bearskin Lake with portages.  Our front desk staff can help you plan a memorable fishing trip -- or consider the option of  using our fishing guide service. 


Fishing Guide Service

Guided fishing trips are available at Bearskin Lodge from mid--May through early October. A guided fishing trip is fun and instructional for both the novice and advanced fisherman. Our fishing guides will show you the tactics and seasonal hot spots that will make your fishing time on East Bearskin more rewarding. And you may even catch a few fish.

Guided day trips into the Boundary Waters and surrounding lakes are also available.

Bearskin Lodge supports Catch and Release.


Bearskin's Fishing Guide

Curtis BlakeThis year Bearskin has a great new fishing guide, Curtis Blake. Curtis has lived on the Gunflint Trail for 20 years, where he was taught to fish by his father, Mike Berg, the owner/operator of Seagull Creek Fishing Camp.  Curtis has been fishing area lakes almost all his life.  He’s been successfully guiding on Sag, Seagull and Northern Lights Lakes for the past 5 years.  Curtis is knowledgeable, articulate and helpful.

If you haven’t hired a guide before on a Bearskin visit, this might be a great year to do so.  The fishing has been excellent, if you know where to find them and what to use on this lake.  Many guests hire the guide when they first get to Bearskin so they can find out right away where the fish are hiding, then continue to use that knowledge all week on their own.

If you think you’ll want a guided trip with Curtis, call our front desk to schedule it now so you’re sure to get the times and dates that you want.
