Lakefront MN Family Vacations

As you can see below, Hungry Jack Lake continues to be the hotspot for fishing along the Gunflint Trail in northern Minnesota. Though smallmouth bass and walleye fishing on Hungry Jack Lake have consistently been very good from year to year, 2009 is proving to be an exceptionally good year for fishermen. A higher than normal amount of large and trophy class fish have been caught this year on Hungry Jack Lake, near the BWCAW on the Gunflint Trail.

Todd Peterson of Edina, MN, who owns a summer home on Hungry Jack Lake, caught a 30” walleye that weighed 10 pound on Hungry Jack Lake the evening of June 13th.

Todd was so proud of the trophy class walleye that he caught on our northern Minnesota lake that he brought it to our family fishing resort to show it off. Todd told us that he used a large sucker minnow and bobber to catch the monster walleye, but would not disclose the location on Hungry Jack Lake where he caught this beautiful walleye.

After showing off his walleye, Todd released the fish at the main dock at our northern MN family fishing resort. Because the majority of people who fish on Hungry Jack Lake release most of the exception walleye, smallmouth bass and northern pike that they catch back into the lake, Hungry Jack Lake just keeps getting better and better. As each year goes by the number of trophy walleye and smallmouth bass caught on Hungry Jack Lake is increasing.

In as much as Todd won’t let you stay with him, in his Hungry Jack Lake summer home, we recommend that you rent one of the lakefront cabins, log cabins or cottages available at our family fishing resort on Hungry Jack Lake, if you want to experience some spectacular northern MN fishing.

GUNFLINT TRAIL AND BWCA RENTAL CABINS AND COTTAGES
Unlike many resorts on the Gunflint Trail, all of the rental cabins and cottages at our Minnesota lakeside family resort are actually on the lake. Each of the rental cabins at our fishing resort has its’ own private dock, deck, grill and much more. Our northern MN fishing resort also has a wooded 14 site lake access campground with water, electric hook-up and central shower house/washrooms.

Hungry Jack Lodge and Campground is just outside the eastern Boundary Waters Canoe Area, in an area that is a virtual patchwork of lakes. Access to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCAW) requires only one very short portage from Hungry Jack Lake. Being adjacent to the BWCA allows guests at our northern Minnesota family resort to take easy fishing and canoeing day trips into the Boundary Waters Canoe Area.
