There's nothing quite like spending a full morning on Last Mountain Lake with your line in the water and a cooler full of ice waiting for your catch. This 6-hour guided fishing adventure kicks off at 7:00 AM sharp and gives you the kind of time on the water that serious anglers dream about. Captain Tyrell Hanson knows these waters like the back of his hand, and he's built a reputation for putting clients on fish when others are still trying to figure out where to wet their line. You'll be fishing from a brand-new 2021 Lund Tyee powered by a reliable 200 HP Mercury engine - the kind of setup that gets you to the hot spots fast and keeps you comfortable all morning long.
Your day starts early, but that's when the magic happens on Last Mountain Lake. The surface is usually glass-smooth at dawn, and the Walleye are actively feeding in the shallows before the sun gets too high. Tyrell will have the boat prepped and ready to go, with all the tackle sorted and bait fresh. This isn't some cookie-cutter trip where everyone gets the same treatment - he reads the conditions, checks the weather patterns, and adjusts the game plan based on what the fish are doing that particular morning. The lake stretches for miles, giving you access to different structures, drop-offs, and weed beds where both Walleye and Northern Pike like to hang out. With 6 full hours on the water, there's time to work multiple spots, try different techniques, and really dial in what's working. The boat comfortably handles up to 4 anglers, though it books for 2 guests at the base rate of $1000 USD, with additional spots available for $200 per person.
Every piece of tackle you'll need comes included, from rods and reels to terminal tackle and fresh bait. Tyrell stocks quality gear that can handle everything from finicky Walleye to aggressive Northern Pike, so you're not stuck with bargain-basement equipment that might cost you a fish of a lifetime. The approach here focuses on proven techniques that work consistently on Last Mountain Lake - trolling with crankbaits and spinner rigs for Walleye, plus casting spoons and larger lures around structure for Pike. During peak season, you'll often start with bottom bouncers and crawler harnesses in 12-20 feet of water, working the edges where Walleye cruise for an easy meal. When Pike fishing heats up, expect to throw bigger baits around weed lines and rocky points where these predators ambush their prey. The Mercury engine keeps noise levels down while trolling, and the Lund's stable platform gives you plenty of room to fight fish without getting tangled up with your fishing partner.
Last Mountain Lake produces some serious Walleye, with fish regularly hitting the 20-inch mark and occasional trophies pushing 26 inches or more. These aren't skinny, stressed-out fish either - they're thick, healthy Walleye that put up a solid fight and taste even better on the dinner table. The lake's abundant forage base keeps them well-fed, and the clean, cold water means excellent table fare. Northern Pike here are known for their aggressive strikes and acrobatic fights, with fish ranging from scrappy 24-inchers up to true monsters exceeding 40 inches. Peak season runs from May 15 through September 15, though the sweet spot often hits during late spring and early summer when water temperatures are prime and both species are actively feeding. Early morning starts give you the advantage of calmer conditions and more active fish, plus you'll beat the recreational boat traffic that picks up later in the day.
Walleye are the bread and butter of Last Mountain Lake, and for good reason. These golden-sided beauties are notorious for their light bite and incredible table fare, making them a favorite target for anglers who appreciate both the challenge and the reward. During late spring and early summer, schools of Walleye move into the shallows to spawn, then gradually work their way to deeper structure as the season progresses. They're most active during low-light periods, which is why that 7:00 AM start time pays dividends. A typical Walleye here runs 15-20 inches, with plenty of "eaters" in the 14-17 inch range and enough big fish to keep things interesting. The best part about Walleye fishing on Last Mountain Lake is the consistency - when Tyrell finds a school, you can often work them for extended periods and really fill the cooler.
Northern Pike bring the excitement factor that every angler craves, with explosive strikes that'll test your reflexes and drag system. Last Mountain Lake Pike are healthy, aggressive predators that patrol the weed lines and rocky structures looking for their next meal. These fish are built for speed and power, with razor-sharp teeth and an attitude to match. Expect Pike anywhere from 24 inches up to legitimate 40-inch-plus trophies that'll give you an arm workout you won't forget. They're most active during warmer periods when they cruise the shallows hunting for prey, but they'll hit lures year-round if you know where to find them. The Lake's clear water and abundant cover create perfect Pike habitat, and Tyrell knows exactly which points, bays, and weed beds hold the biggest fish.
Six hours on the water with an experienced guide beats a full day of guessing where the fish might be hiding. Tyrell's track record speaks for itself, and his repeat clients keep coming back because they know they're getting genuine local knowledge, not just a boat ride. The season books up fast, especially during peak months when both Walleye and Pike fishing hit their stride. All you need to bring is a valid fishing license and maybe a camera
You'll spend your 6-hour morning fishing adventure aboard a 2021 Lund 189 Tyee that's built for serious angling on Last Mountain Lake. This 20-foot motorboat runs on a powerful 200 HP Mercury engine, giving you smooth rides between fishing spots and quick access to where the Walleye and Northern Pike are biting. The Tyee handles beautifully in all lake conditions and has plenty of space for you and your fishing partner to cast comfortably without getting tangled up. With speeds up to 43 mph, you'll cover more water and spend less time traveling between productive areas. The boat's design keeps you stable while fighting fish, and there's room for all your gear plus the provided tackle and equipment.
Esox LuciusNorthern pike are the lake's apex predator and pure adrenaline on a rod. These toothy missiles average 24-30 inches but can push 40+ inches on Last Mountain. They're ambush hunters that lurk in shallow bays, weed beds, and along drop-offs where they can surprise prey. Spring through early summer is peak time when they're active in 5-15 feet of water. What guests love most is the explosive strike and bulldogging fight - pike don't give up easy. They're also surprisingly good eating when prepared right, despite what some folks think. The key to consistent pike success here is fishing slow near structure. Cast spoons or large swimbaits right into the thick weeds where most people won't go. Pike aren't afraid of cover, so neither should you be. Always bring a good net and pliers - those teeth mean business.
Sander VitreusWalleye are the bread and butter of Last Mountain Lake, and for good reason. These golden-olive beauties typically run 14-20 inches here, with their signature glowing eyes that help them feed in low light. You'll find them relating to rocky structure and weed edges, usually 10-25 feet deep during the day. Early morning and evening are prime time when they move shallow to feed. The bite really turns on from late May through August when water temps hit that sweet spot around 70 degrees. What makes walleye special? They fight smart, not just hard - headshakes and runs that keep you honest. Plus, they're hands down the best eating fish in the lake. Here's a local trick: when you mark fish on sonar but they won't bite, try dropping your jig a foot or two below them. Often they'll come up to grab it rather than chase it down.
