Not every visitor to the Iowa Great Lakes dreams about capturing a golden tan on the deck of a sleek boat, sailing against the backdrop of a glorious sunset or enjoying the area's exciting nightlife.

We refer, of course, to the countless fishermen, hunters and trails enthusiasts who enjoy our area during all four seasons and all types of weather.

Fishing and the Iowa Great Lakes have been synonymous since the earliest days and eleven fishing lakes in the county lure anglers to their shores annually. Covering over 14,000 acres, the lakes offer a wide variety of species, including northern, walleye, muskie, perch and large and small mouth bass.
