Lake Winnipeg

Trophy Walleye

We stay on the fish. No matter if you’re staying in one of our luxury ice houses or running and gunning out on the ice, we’re always scouring the southern basin of Lake Winnipeg for active pods of trophy class fish. If a Master Angler walleye is on your bucket list, your odds of landing one are about as good as it gets ice fishing on Lake Winnipeg with Gaune Fishin.
