Bruce Beyersdorf and his 22" smallmouth bass This was the largest smallmouth bass
caught in the Trophy Waters area in 2012, which
won Bruce a free trip to Roger Lake in 2013.
Total privacy is the real attraction at Roger Lake. You’re on
the uninhabited Sturgeon River, which abounds with trophy pike
and walleye. At Roger Lake, you are masters of you own private
Big North Outposts wilderness domain. You can fish when you
want and eat when you want. And if you decide to stay up late,
you don’t have to worry that the neighbors will complain about
the laughter.
Roger Lake features some of the finest small mouth bass fishing
found in Northwestern Ontario. In addition to smallies, Roger
Lake also hosts tremendous Walleye and Northern Pike. The lake
is approximately 8 miles long and measures depths up to 65 feet.
Unique in its shape, it lends itself to productive fishing in
all wind conditions as it is a well protected
body of water allowing the fishermen to fish any time, in any
conditions. As a part of the famous English River system, Roger
Lake is healthy in that it is not land locked, instead producing
a steady flow of exchanging water thus producing excellent
spawning conditions. A number of rapids are available for fast
action fishing as well as a spectacular 40’ water fall fishermen
and photographers alike will want to experience. Hidden bays,
exposed reefs, weedy bays, sandy and rock rubble shorelines as
well as the rapids all offer a variety of fishing conditions for
anglers.
Accommodations
for anglers are truly deluxe. Roger Lake has two 3-bedroom
cabins which are 700 feet apart, each with their own dock. We
will take a minimum of two people in each cabin. Our two cabins
at Roger Lake will accommodate up to 12 people, in comfortable,
clean quarters with large dining rooms for those festive group
dinners. There’s a large barbeque, indoor shower, hot and cold
running water, and a wide, sunny deck overlooking the lake. We
supply you with six boats, equipped with reliable 15 h.p. motors. All the equipment you’ll need is included in
the package price. You only need to bring fishing rods, tackle,
bedding, and groceries.
CATCH & RELEASE POLICY
In Roger Lake, we are strongly encouraging the adoption of
Catch and Release fishing. This means that you can eat smaller
walleye while staying there, but not take your limit home.
Release all trophy fish after taking photos and measurements if
you decide to have a replica made. This policy will ensure that
the quality of fishing remains high and consistent for future
generations of fishermen. However, if you do decided to take
some fish home, our policy is that you can only take Walleye and
must limit them to those fish under 18 inches.
