Thrift Lake
Located NE of the main lodge, up the river past the airstrip, you will find the Thrift Rapids. The rapids flow into Hatchet Lake from Thrift Lake. To access the portage lake you must make a short 2 minute walk on a wooden boardwalk that runs along the rapids. At the top of the rapids you will find two more fishing boats reading to go. Just bring your gear and your coolers if you wish to have lunch while fishing on the new lake.
Thrift Lake is well known for its great walleye fishing! If you are interested in catching a walleye, Thrift Lake is an excellent option to score some walleye for lunch. Small to average sized northern pike are also plentiful here but don’t be surprised if you hook into a trophy! Early in June you can also catch lake trout at some of the narrows on Thrift.

Le Drew Lake
Located just of the SW corner of Hatchet Lake connected by a short stream, Le Drew is accessible by a 1/2 mile portage. At the other end of the walking trail to Le Drew Lake you will find two fishing boats ready to go for your time on the lake. The lake is known for its trophy northern pike and the occasional large walleye. Le Drew is our furthest portage lake from the lodge as to get to the trail head you must make a 20 minute boat ride across the lake first. Guests that enjoy fishing Le Drew typically will fish Hatchet for the morning, have shore lunch at the portage point to Le Drew and then make the trip for the afternoon.
