The Path less taken
In the mood to explore the path less taken? You’re in the right place. A primary reason visitors return to Manitowish Waters year after year, is that there is space to roam and plenty of room to stretch your legs.
Fishing
There are few activities more serene, and yet more exciting, than fishing our incredible waterways. It’s an all-season sport, drawing thousands of anglers to our pristine waters, chasing monster muskie, scoping out where the walleye are hitting, and hunkering down over an 8-inch hole drilled in the lake ice. You might even spot a slow-moving fisherperson, stealthily making their way along the water’s edge, hoping to not spook that record trout.

Scores of lakes, rivers, and streams await you—4,265 acres of water to be exact, including our “Legendary 10-Lake Chain.” Most lakes have either state- or town-owned public fishing piers and landings for easy access. Remember to purchase a fishing license before you hit the water and brush up on the rules and regulations for water safety. If you’re fishing our waters for the first time, or if you’ve fished for some time and gotten skunked, chances are you might need a little help from an expert. Contact one of our experienced guides and let them do the heavy lifting for you.
