Munroe Lake
Munroe Lake lies in the subarctic, roughly 1,000 km north of Winnipeg and 90 km south of the Nunavut border. Munroe Lake Lodge markets it as an untouched multi-species fishery for lake trout, northern pike, arctic grayling, and walleye. Hunt Fish Manitoba featured the lodge as a trophy destination with sight-fishing for giant pike.
