The Winnipeg river system is home to some awesome river and lake fishing. Some of the lakes on this system are small and easy to fish, while others are quite big and will take a little more time to learn, but will also have so much more potential for big numbers of fish and trophy fish. This entire system in the Minaki area is awesome for fishing. You also have many other lakes in the area to fish if you want to venture away from the Winnipeg river system.
The five main lakes here are Gunn Lake, Big Sand Lake, Little Sand Lake, Pistol Lake and Roughrock lake. You can also fish the river south towards Kenora. Some anglers venture farther northwest into Swan Lake or Tetu Lake.
