Devils Lake is the largest natural body of water in North Dakota. It is the premier
vacation destination in the state. You can find some of the finest fishing and hunting
here, which will keep you busy for all 4 seasons of the year. The lake is about 122,000
acres and most of it is not developed. Fishing is excellent for a number of species.
Walleye, perch, northern pike, and white bass are caught in Devils Lake. Being a
relatively shallow lake with excellent populations of forage, large fish are produced
quickly in Devils Lake. Many pike over 10 pounds are caught every year. Walleye in
the 6 to 8 pound class are common as well as some jumbo yellow perch. Most people
target the pike, perch and walleye, but don't forget about the white bass. There are
lots of them and many white bass are caught over 3 pounds here. Devils Lake gives
anglers a great place to getaway as well as an opportunity to land the fish of a lifetime.
