Going up to fish the Winnipeg River system. We are staying at a resort that hosts some Gary Roach Annual Walleye Tourney. Anyone have any information on where to fish walleye third week of June? Or, if you have the name of a good guide in the area that would help too. Thanks in advance!

Good place to go ! Look for a guide named Rob. He hangs out here, and seems to be a good guy.

Lot of good fishing between Minaki and Silver Point on the Winnipeg, that's the stretch I'm the most familiar with. Larry Snow would be a good guide, he can be contacted at Black Sturgeon Camp I believe.

Brian, Head up to the Rock Pile.
Just came back last week,water was 7' higher than normal. Had a guide named Jimmy and he was topnotch. Bring a good supply of large jigs.

WPG River Dude,
Does Rob have a last name or a resort he fishes out of?
Pat,
Do you have a number for the Black Sturgeon Camp?
Corker,
Where is the "Rock Pile".
Boy,
Does Jimmie have a last name or resort he fishes out of?
Thanks for the replies everyone. I love the information on this site!
if you e mail me, I can give you all the answers you need.
Good Fishen
Rob
p.s thanks for the recommendation WRD. Maybe sometime you'll get brave enough to fish the "REAL"" part of the river system. ;-}

The real part? Rough Rock?? :-)
WRD fishes the "Manitoba" side of the river system. Eagle Nest lake to be precise. He CLAIMS that the fishing on the Mb side is better. I'd agree that the fishing at Pine Falls in Oct can be awsome BUT for overall size & consistancy anywhere on the Wpg River System, from the White Dog dam all the way to LOW the fishing is better. Just my honest opinion & yes I have fished the entire system from Pine Falls to LOW.
Good Fishen
Rob
Black Sturgeon Camp's phone number is 807-548-4875.
Good luck!

Rob Carlson is a TOP NOTCH guide and good friend. Rob is a class act and will put you on the best fish of your life. I live in Nebraska and consider Rob a fishing buddy and true friend.
There's no way you could do better than a day with Rob on the water, especially on Minaki. If you don't believe me, ask Gary Roach himself.

I just got back from Minaki and the fishing was awsome
there was lots of big ones caught this weekend, the biggest
that I saw was a 31 incher. I caught plenty in the 20in range
and my biggest was 27 1/2. Bottom bouncers and leeches are a
must but jigs seem to do the trick also. Wildedge is the place to go right now but that will change soon , the eyes are on the go back to there summer hiding places. 25-30 foot range.
Have fun...
