Although there are several species to target and places to find them in our neck of the woods, many of our guests have the notoriously elusive musky at the forefront of their angling agenda. After generation upon generation of legendary adventures, it’s no secret that musky fishing in Ontario is some of the best in Canada, if not North America! The rugged beauty featured throughout the pristine wilderness surrounding Slippery Winds Wilderness Lodge near Fort Frances, Ontario, is a stark reminder of why remote angling is a rewarding experience.

Ontario Musky Fishing – A Must-Try Endeavor

The great muskellunge is often called “the fish of 10,000 casts” because of its low-key demeanor and highly discerning hunting techniques. Often reaching over 20 pounds and 50 inches, these opportunistic feeders graciously reward their challengers with a ferocious fight and unique challenge. What makes these “lake sharks” so fascinating isn’t only their sheer size and tenacity and the genuine opportunity to haul in a personal or even a provincial record! Thankfully, you won’t be out on your own at Slippery Winds! Our world-class fishing guides will help you every step of the way, from discussing which lures to use to showing you how to “figure-eight” once the musky has made its way to your boat.
