Crappie Fishing

Slab Ontario Crappie Fishing on Rainy Lake
Camp Narrows Lodge, Fish Rainy Lake on the border of Ontario and Minnesota

Camp Narrows Lodge, located on the north arm of Rainy Lake, is one of Canada's premier spots for slab Ontario Crappie fishing. Our part of Northwestern Ontario, is located on the Minnesota, Ontario border. We are located 1 hour east of Lake of the Woods and 1/2  hour north of Fort Frances and International Falls, Minnesota. We are a boat-in resort, which means we are located where the fish are. You only have to go minutes from the dock to see that our crappies are truly slabs.  Rainy Lake crappie fishing can produce fish in the  10 - 19 inches range.  The forage in the lake is bountiful. Smelts are now the main food source which puts shoulders on all the fish.We have great navigational Rainy Lake maps, which if you would like to fish on your own, we can mark for you all the hotspots. If you would prefer, our Rainy Lake Guide Service can take you out for some awesome Rainy Lake Crappie Fishing as well. We can show you all the structure, techniques and the best fishing holes the lake has to offer. Spring or fall is the best time for fishing for crappie.  We also have great fishing for walleye, whitefish, northern pike and of course smallmouth bass. Our Rainy Lake Guides can either steer you in the right direction or take you to some hotspots. Guided fishing on Rainy Lake, even for the first day is always available to our guests or to fishermen and women who would just like to give Rainy a try for the day.

Spring or Fall Rainy Lake, Ontario Crappie Fishing can't be Beat
Spring fishing for crappies is done in the shallower bays, located just off the main lake. As soon as the ice goes off, many crappies move up into the shallow, warmer waters. Flyfishing, casting little bobbers, light tubes etc can all be used at this time of year. Many rock piles are located in and around the shallower bays, and can all be targeted for slab Rainy Lake crappies. Northern Ontario weather, is of course little cooler than the waters found in Minnesota. Our ice out is usually the beginning of May, so the fishing starts just after that.  Fallen trees, stumps and the rock are all good places to target. Some fish stay in the deeper water out in the main bay. You can also jig for these during the spring. Just ask us, we will give our guests all the pointers needed to get into some slab's.
Fall fishing on Rainy Lake is truly a crappie fishermen's outdoor vacation. The Crappies school up in the thousands. They hang out in the main bays in water 20 - 40 feet deep. Jig fishing is the method to catch them. Dropping down into a large school of fish and giving it a little jig tipped with live bait or a small plastic will bring you great success. the schools of fish can be 10 feet thick at this time of year. Once again, all you have to do is ask and we can point you in the right direction or our guides can take you out for some great guided fishing on Rainy Lake.  Winter fishing is another option to catch crappie. Icefishing for slab Rainy Lake crappies is awesome. Our guide service can take you anywhere on the lake or into some of the surrounding lakes in Northwestern Ontario. We can fish for all the species, walleye, northern, crappie, whitefish, and even lake trout. We can plan any type of fishing or hunting vacation that will suit all of your needs.
