Did you know that ALL our trophy fish go right back into the lake? We have proudly been practicing Catch, Photograph, & Release at Black Bear Island Lodge since we opened in 2001 and our ever INCREASING trophy numbers are a direct result! #youarewelcome

As our 2020 season comes to a close we can't help but to thank everyone who contributed to making this season as successful as it was! Thank you all, and we'll see you in 2021!

Did you know that although we are Black Bear Island Lodge, we have a lot of color phase black bears harvested!?

Cinnamon bears are what bear hunting dreams are made of!

They don't call us Black Bear Island Lodge for the heck of it!

Did you know that Black Bear Island Lodge hosts on average 90% repeat guests every year? We think the increasing trophy fish numbers might have something to do with that!

Seeing smiles almost as big as the trophy fish is our favorite!

It's always such a joy to show the next generation how to successfully fish, until they start reeling in bigger trophies than you...

Now that your bear hunt is over, you can spend the rest of your trip at Black Bear Island Lodge focusing on your trophy count that you get to reel into the boat!
