To my knowledge, when hit at the right time this is the best channel catfishing in the world.It's not uncommon to catch several thousand pounds of fish in two or three days, usually averaging around the 15 pound mark, with an upper size limit in the high 40 pound range, and a legitimate shot at a 30 + on any given trip.I'm told the walleye fishing is equally as incredible if you catch it at the right time, the ice fishing season is supposed to be epic as well.The new ownership is still renovating, but so far they have done a great job and they are incredibly accommodating and friendly.The boat launch right below the dam is the centerpiece for me, but the floating dock you can rent out, complete with poll holders and a gazebo is also pretty great.The fish run here run up from lake Winnipeg, the 11th largest lake on the planet, and pile up in the Red River beneath the lock, which combined with the health of the surrounding ecosystem and the good stewardship of the the fishery, make this a truly world class destination that can be accessed on middle class budget.
