LAKES/FISHING GUIDE
CAST INTO PURE NORTHWOODS SERENITY: FISHING IN DICKENSON
COUNTY, MICHIGAN
Tucked into the heart of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Dickinson County offers anglers the kind of quiet, wild fishing experiences you can’t manufacture—only discover. With forest-lined lakes, winding rivers, and crystal-clear trout streams, the county is a year-round destination for everyone from dedicated anglers to families looking for a peaceful day on the water.
RIVERS THAT KEEP YOU COMING BACK
The Menominee, Sturgeon, and Michigamme rivers are the stars of the county’s fishing scene. Known for their rugged beauty and healthy fish populations, these waters hold smallmouth bass, northern pike, walleye, and seasonal trout runs. Wade anglers and kayakers especially love the Sturgeon River, where cold, fast stretches provide excellent opportunities for trout and spring bass.
For those seeking larger water and big-water species, the Menominee River along the county’s southern edge is legendary—a place where anglers have landed trophy-size bass, walleye, and hard-fighting muskies.
LAKES MADE FOR EVERY ANGLER
Dickinson County’s scenic lakes offer a more relaxed style of fishing, perfect for sunrise outings or a slow afternoon drift. Fumee, Lake Antoine, Sawyer Lake, and Hamilton Lake are well-known for accessible shore fishing and family-friendly amenities. Panfish, perch, bass, and pike are common targets, and many lakes are stocked and managed to keep fishing strong throughout the season.
Kayak anglers, especially, find calm and inviting waters here—ideal for quietly exploring coves and weedlines where the fish like to hide.
ICE FISHING THAT DEFINES THE U.P.
Winter doesn’t slow things down—it simply changes the gear. Once the lakes freeze over, ice anglers dot the frozen landscapes. Lake Antoine and Sawyer Lake are popular early-season destinations, while deeper lakes offer mid-winter action for walleye and pike. Many local bait shops offer up-to-date conditions and gear advice, making it easy for visitors to get started.
A TRUE NORTHWOODS FISHING CULTURE
Whether you’re casting from a riverbank, easing a boat across a still morning lake, or settling into a heated shack on a frozen bay, fishing in Dickinson County is about more than the catch. It’s about the quiet moments—loons calling across the water, the smell of pine, and the chance to reconnect with nature.
For seasoned anglers chasing their next big story or families looking to discover the joy of fishing together, Dickinson County offers a welcoming, unspoiled, and unforgettable place to cast a line.
