Muskie Bay Resort presents the Crow Lake Ice Classic

January 26-29 2017.

Want a REAL Winter adventure? Come join us in Nestor Falls, Ontario Canada at Muskie Bay Resort. Fish the famous waters of Lake of the Woods, Crow Lake and surronding lakes for Lake Trout, Crappies, Perch, Pike and everything else this area has to offer. There are give aways and prizes. This American Plan trip leaves no one hungry and the local guide will be bringing us to all the hot spots. As a group we will decide what we want to dd, but the basic plan will be as follows: Show up on Thursday and fish or get your gear ready. Supper is provided on Thursday evening. Friday and Saturday we will get up and have a quick breakfast and hit the water early. Lake Trout will be the primary target early in the day on Crow Lake or its surronding lakes. Conditions will dictate how far we will be able to travel. We will come in for a hot lunch and then head over to Lake of the Woods for an afternoon of Crappie fishing. At dark we will come in and have a hot supper. Saturday we enjoy some of what we have caught and we will have fish for dinner. Sunday morning will fish and then head home.
