Obukowin Lake

Obukowin Lake is a Wallace Lake Lodge fly-in outpost lake, about a 35-minute flight from the Lac du Bonnet float base, with a two-bedroom housekeeping cabin on shore. The lodge describes incredible bottom structure holding large numbers of walleye, with northern pike in the weedy bays and channels among the islands. A nearby spring-fed lake with a cached boat is catch-and-release only.
