Fishing Lures - This could be a long list. We advise our guests to bring along the tackle they have and wait until they arrive to find out what the fish are hitting at the time. You can spend countless $$$ on lures, trying to anticipate what the fish are hitting, only to have most of them remain in the tackle box unused. Various jig and bait rigs tipped with a minnow remain a very inexpensive, popular, and effective lure for our type of fishing. Spoons, spinner baits, and crank baits are also used, but that list is endless here at Moose Track Cottages. On beautiful lower Manitou. Offers larger northern and lake trout fishing. Propane lights, refrigerator, wood heat & hot and cold running water. Fly in access only.
