    For all you Lake of the Woods anglers… we’re thrilled to announce the addition of a new site sponsor!

    Flag Island Resort – located on the NW Angle.

    Flag Island runs a year-round establishment – they’ll be reporting on open water and ice fishing progress in their area. If you haven’t checked out their website, please take the time to do so. In my opinion they offer some of the nicest cabins to be found on LOTW and the rates are exceptionally reasonable. Some might even say “priced for a group of guys but nice enough for the wife and kids” should you want to do a family fishing trip.

    Please help us welcome Flag Island Resort. With the world class fishing opportunities in that area all of us that have been to LOTW or would like to go for the first time will greatly benefit from their willingness to share their knowledge of the area!

    For more info on Flag Island Resort and the accomodations they offer, click on the Flag Island banner located top-right in this forum.

    Great to have you guys aboard!

    I’ve been digging thru your website and I keep coming back to the cabin photos. They look exceptionally well cared for and maintained! I just had to throw out the cabin photos so others could check them out.

    We’re all chomping at the bit to see that first fishing report out of your guys.

    Welcome aboard Flag Island Resort! I know that you’ll find IDA to be the best thing for fishing in the midwest since sliced bread and well-tuned crankbaits!

    Welcome aboard!!!!!

    I love your neck of the woods for summer eye fishing. I especially love the little stretch of reefs from Birch Is to Bay Is. There is some HOT walleye fishing around there come mid-July!!!!

    Welcome Flag Island!

    James, those cabins caught my eye too…but the photo’s of the crappies made me hungry!

    Again, welcome aboard! If you need anything, please feel free to send a Private Message.

    PS I’m looking forward to your first report too…but don’t show a lot of fish…I have some time off and it’s not going to take much to get me out of the house!

    Welcome aboard Flag Island!
    I am excited to see some consistent reports from the big lake. I have been a long time visitor to various locations on LOTW for the last 20 years. NW Angle, Tug Channel area, Sabaskong Bay. For us, all these areas had something to offer for multi species.

    Thanks for supporting the best fishing website around and look forward to hearing more about your resort and area fishing!

    This is kind of weird….I was just talking with my neighbors about thier annual Memorial Day trip to Flag Island!!! My neighbors Ken Hanson and Harold & Arty Kendall have made this trip to Flag Island Resort the last couple of years!!! I think Ken said they stay at the Point..

    I have also fished this area in the past! Fishing around Flag, Oak Island areas and the Canadian Reefs to the north about 20+ miles in the ” Narrows Area ” We hired a guide out of Jakes NW angle…Paul Collins (sp) something like that……He took us up into this narrows area and we hammered the fish!!! Great time!!

    Welcome. Great to have you with us. From all the talk I’m hearing about this place its one big hot area for walleye fishing. Can’t wait to hear some reports and more about the resort too. It looks like a very nice place to stay and add in the hot walleye action and its a winner for sure.
    Thanks, Bill

    If people are looking for BIG walleyes, this is the place to go. There are a ton of great reefs close by that host walleys up to 13lbs come July and August. Also, the fishing is quite simple, pulling bottom bouncers and spinner rigs.

    One particular reef a few miles away put 6 fish over 25″ in an afternoon of fishing!!! Not bad for two guys!!! Plus there were lots of 15 to 25 inch fish to throw into the mix!!!!

    Welcome to IDA. Flag is a great place and located in some of the best walleye and smallmouth fishing in the world. I try to make it up that way every year.
