Tunnel Lake

Tunnel lake is a reservoir on the Mississagi River with 13 miles of navigable length and 50 miles of shoreline. It has many coves, islands,several large bay areas with widths of more than two miles. Water depths are extremely varied (up to 250 feet deep ) with many fishing shoals.

The water is quite clear, slightly tea stained. Weed beds are spotty and scattered and form slowly as summer progresses. Extensive gravel shoals are present favoring crayfish for the bass and form good spawning beds for the walleye.

Tunnel lake is known for it's walleye ( the season opens the third Sat. in May ) but it's smallmouth bass fishing is exciting. The bass may still be on their nests when the season opens on the last Sat. of June and we have found easier success for bass fishing in Aug. and September. Each year large pike are caught and released-something we recommend for all large fish. Pike go deep during the warm summer months. Whitefish are caught incidentally and jumbo perch and pan fish are there for everyone. Sturgeon have been caught and stocked in the past by the MNR.
