Pine County’s Pokegama Lake could be the finest representation of what a multi-species fishery is supposed to look like. As part of the Snake River system, you just never know what might show up on the end of your line, and that alone might be one of Pokegama’s greatest traits.

Located on the eastern edge of Alexandria, Lake Geneva has a reputation as one of this area’s premier largemouth bass and panfish fisheries. It’s also part of the Alexandria Chain of Lakes, which includes other popular destination water bodies such as Carlos, Le Homme Dieu, Darling, and Victoria.
Every lake in the system is noted for its ability to produce largemouth bass, bluegills, and crappies. But its Geneva’s consistent production and size structure that seems to stand out just a bit more.

Although Balsam Lake is located in fishing-rich Itasca County, this 716-acre system probably isn’t on the radar of most anglers. Balsam is kind of in the middle of nowhere, north of Grand Rapids and southeast of Marcell in the east-central part of the county.

That’s not necessarily the case with Caribou Lake, a 721-acre fishery within this region. While still located in one of the most picturesque places you’ll find, its immediate location in the Lutsen tourist hub, a year-round destination vacation area in the Arrowhead, means Caribou is heavily used for both fishing and recreational opportunities.

Chisago Lake and South Lindstrom Lake border the town of Chisago City; they’re connected via a navigable channel and total nearly 1,400 acres of fishable water. While these two water bodies differ in physical characteristics such as size and depth, there’s plenty of fish movement between the lakes – so what you find in one, you’ll find in the other.
