Click here for the latest Fall and Spring Fishing Tourney results. Lake Gogebic is the Upper Peninsula of Michigan's largest inland lake located in the far western end of the Upper Peninsula. Lake Gogebic is a four-season vacation gem - still undiscovered by many. Lake Gogebic itself is in two counties and in two time zones. The north half of Lake Gogebic is in Ontonagon County, Bergland Township, and the Eastern Time zone. The south half of the lake is in Gogebic County, Marenisco Township, and the Central Time zone.
In 13,380 acres of prime fishing water, Lake Gogebic offers walleye, small mouth bass, northern pike, jumbo perch and some whitefish. Throughout the season, the Lake Gogebic Area Chamber of Commerce hosts a tagged fish contest with thousands of dollars in prizes. Click here for a Lake Gogebic area fishing report. Click here for AYA, Spring and Fall Fishing Tournament information.This region is also a prime hunting hot spot for deer, bear, small game and birds. The autumn colors are spectacular. Waterfalls abound and many are very easily accessed. Honeymooners will enjoy searching out the more remote falls. Lake Superior's shores are close by too.
Lake Gogebic has several bays and streams coming into the lake, making it an ideal spot for kayakers. There are also several public areas where kayaker's can access the lake: the Bergland Bay, two County Parks and one State Park along the west shore of the lake, along with several businesses which would allow access for kayaker's to gain entrance to the lake. Although kayak rentals are fairly new to the Lake Gogebic area, local rentals are available. Click here for Rental Info. Navigable water maps are available with a rental. Look for streams coming into the lake along most shores, but especially at the south end of the lake and the Merriweather Creek at the northwest corner. Viewing blue herons, multiple duck breeds, bald eagle, beaver, otter along with a host of other air and water wild life are just a few of the things that make this "silent sport" so popular. Winter is a "world of its own" with an annual snowfall of nearly 300 inches. Lake Gogebic is situated within a vast snowmobile trail system extending throughout the Upper Peninsula. Cross country ski trails are abundant and five major downhill ski facilities are less than a hour's drive. It is a great place to use snowshoes. The evenings are often full of Northern Lights and a wolf's cry. The dress is casual and the attitudes are friendly. Bring sweaters for summer evenings and expect beautiful warm days. Winters are harsh and fall is cool, but the seasons are amazing. Come wander through our Lake Gogebic Area Chamber of Commerce website and see how it is to be in paradise. Better yet - make Lake Gogebic your next destination and see for yourself! Discover what our area has to offer. Lake
