Back to the matter at hand, you set the strategy, consult with the guide. Where to go? What lure? Trout, Pike or Grayling, today? Troll, cast, jig, so many decisions! The only interruption to your fishing is probably what many consider the highlight. Your guide will prepare your fresh catch for a delicious lunch on shore. There isn't much better than fresh fish over an open fire. Then it is back on the lake for some more fabulous fishing.

Around 6 PM you return from the lake for that much needed shower and perhaps a cocktail. Or, if you're reluctant to give up that favorite fishing hole so early, you can opt for a late supper. The dining room is open for dinner at 7 PM. Our friendly and courteous support staff is eager to serve you the featured dinner menu. Soup, salad, entree and choice of dessert to top off another great day of fishing. The rest of the evening is up to you. You may go out and continue fishing or spend the
evening relaxing with friends.

Our fishing guides have a working knowledge of the sports species you'll be pursuing. The knowledge and experience these people have of the local hydrology, entomology, and angling technique, compliment all parameters of your fishing vacation.

The Fishing at Kasba Lake Lodge

Kasba Lake is only free of ice a few months each year. This means that the fish are very active during the 10 week season. Northern Pike spawn very early in the season. At this time of year the Pike are in the streams and shallow bays. After they spawn they become very active, looking for feed. As the summer warms the shallow bays up the large Pike can be spotted lying in the weeds and just off the bottom. This is the time of year for sight fishing. In Roland Martin’s recent film at Kasba Lake Lodge on sight fishing for Pike he found and caught many 40 to 48 inch Pike using this method. This is very exciting fishing. As you pole around a shallow bay you can virtually pick out your Pike and entice him onto your line. With a large splash and speeding wake you will find yourself battling a monster Pike. Later on in the season the Pike move to the mouth of the bays preparing for the up-coming winter months.

Kasba Lake Trout

Due to the colder waters in the main lake the Lake Trout are taken near the surface all summer. Kasba Lake has many reefs and islands throughout its 1,500 square miles. The bottom is mainly rocky giving lots of hiding places for baitfish. During the early part of the season Lake Trout of all sizes can be caught by trolling very near the shoreline or casting into the shore. Fish up to 30 lbs. have been caught right up in the rocks. As the water warms up the Trout move to the rocky points and reefs. Lake Trout can be caught in large numbers by trolling, casting or fly fishing.

During the mid summer season when the baitfish are schooling, numerous Lake Trout can be taken on floating lures. This is very exciting as the Trout thrash on the surface attacking your lure. By the end of the season the Trout are looking for the shallow rocky shore again to spawn. They are very aggressive during this time protecting their territory.

The world famous Kazan River harbors some of the largest Arctic Grayling in the world. Because Kasba Lake is the headwaters of the Kazan this is the best place to find the sail fish of the north. Arctic Grayling can be caught on flies or small spinners and jigs. The Grayling live in the fast water of the Kazan in the rapids. After anchoring the boat in the rapids it is easy to cast for these acrobatic fish.

Kasba Lake Lodge is famous for all 3 species of fish, Northern Pike, Lake Trout & Arctic Grayling. Each year over 65,000 fish are caught and released. Lake Trout, Northern Pike and Arctic Grayling can be caught using spinning, bait casting or fly fishing gear.
