Another important aspect to Sandy's Blackhawk Island is its location. Sitting right in the middle of one of the best fisheries in North America, fishermen have a distinct advantage over most other locales when it comes to numbers and size of fish. Walleye, large and small mouth bass, as well as pike, are abundant and size is very respectable. However, if muskie fishing is your forte, Sandy's Blackhawk Island is definitely for you. Not only is Lake of the Woods at the top of the list of fisheries for many muskie hunters, but also Sandy's boasts one of the most experienced muskie fishermen on the lake.
Bill Sandy has been fishing Lake of the Woods since he was old enough to paddle a canoe and has been guiding since he was nine years old. For almost 30 years, he has been fishing muskies from opener to freeze-up. During this time, he has boated thousands of muskies, averaging well over 300 per season in recent years. Not only is he great at what he does, but he also loves the thrill of the hunt. This drive is clearly evident if you're ever fortunate enough to be in the boat with him. However, he is also very willing to share his enthusiasm and advice with every guest in the camp. He really wants everyone to succeed and will do what he can to make that happen for you.
The best boats, motors and guides are available to make your fishing and hunting trip a thrilling experience. Our 17-foot Lund boats are comfortable to fish from and are powered by 50 H.P. Mercury motors. You will find our guides competent and dependable, as they are native to the area not merely "imported" for the season.
