Ice Fishing . . (Top) . . . . (Hideout at Higgins Lake)

Experience the excitement of winter fishing on Houghton Lake, Higgins Lake and Lake St. Helen. Here you will find perch, crappie, small and large mouth bass, northern pike, walleye, pike, bluegill and more. Shanties MUST be removed by March 15 from all bodies of water.

You can rent an ice shanty, get fishing information and more from the following:

 

Fly Fishing

Fly-fishing is incredible on the AuSable River, famous for its world-class Trout fishing.

 

Smelt Fishing

This type of fishing is done in early spring with nets on the Cut River and the Muskegon River.   Fish through the ice for smelt on Higgins Lake with hook and line.

 

Fishing Tournaments on all three lakes . . (Top) . . . . (Hideout at Higgins Lake)

There are several fishing tournaments on our three lakes; the search for the biggest Walleye, Bass, Bluegill, and Trout that live within these waters make it the “fishing spot” to be.  RCL, Michigan Bass Association and Wal-Mart are just a few that sponsor tournaments at one or all of the lakes throughout the year.

 

The Cut River

The Cut River connects Marl Lake to Higgins Lake giving ample opportunity to fish for Perch, Smallmouth Bass, and Northern Pike.  Most anglers use a canoe or small boat and fish in the center of the lake because it is considerably smaller, shallower and less developed than other lakes in the area.
