Fish Sand Lake Successfully for Walleye and for Other Game Fish - Tips from Campbell's Lodge owner, Joe Campbell

At Campbell’s Lodge, we take your fishing success very seriously!  Sand Lake is a great fishery and with our weekly guest reception and fishing seminar we help you find the fish.  In the seminar I include some basic lake characteristics and patterns to help our guests achieve greater fishing success on Sand Lake.

One of the most frequently asked questions is “What do I need for tackle?”  The answer I give is - not much!  Another question..."Can my kids have fun catching fish?"  Absolutely!  By keeping it simple and free from pressure you and your kids can enjoy fishing Sand Lake together!

In our weekly fishing seminar I touch on technique, presentation, and equipment.  Technique depends on the species of fish you are hunting but we can help you fish more successfully for all species including walleye, northern and panfish.  Click here to read the full article, "Sand Lake Fishing Tips from Joe Campbell."
