The state-controlled section of the lake is popular among fishermen and there are
plenty of lodging options to accommodate you on our trip. The walleye fishing is very
good. Some very big northern pike can be caught on this lake and there is also some
decent fishing for perch and crappie.

Upper Red Lake is known for its excellent walleye and northern pike fishery. Back in
the mid-1990s, the walleye population was nearly crippled because of over harvesting.
The Red Lake Nation control most of Upper Red Lake and Lower Red Lake and only
tribal members are allowed to fish these areas that are controlled by Red Lake Nation.
Commercial fishing took its toll and depleted a majority of the walleye on the lake. The
lake has recovered because of an extensive stocking program and new regulations.
