Ice Fishing on Fort Peck Reservoir
What you're signing up for
Fort Peck through the ice is a serious destination — trophy lake trout that pull tip-ups under and walleye that hit on the jig. We run with Captain Lars Sorensen, who's been ice fishing this water for 30+ years and knows where the fish stack up under the ice. Heated shelter, all the gear, real expertise.

Lake Trout
Lake Trout are a large, slow-growing fish that thrives in cold, deep waters throughout North America. They are beautiful fish, with dark green or brown backs and silver or light gold bellies and orange lower fins. They can live up to 60 years and are commonly measured up to 20 inches and 7 pounds, but can be significantly larger.
