| I was wondering what's the lake that's furthest north in Canada that contains good musky fishing. I know in eastern Ontario they pretty much stop at Lake Nipeeing. |

| Pretty sure Red Lake is the northernmost waterbody containing muskies, although I think it is a low density population. Otherwise, for "good musky fishing" I think Longlegged is probably the northernmost. |

| Agree with Matt. I've only seen one Musky in Parker lake which has a flowage to Red Lake and it was about a foot and a half long. Been fishing Red Lake for 10 years and while they have huge Northern Pike (>52"), muskies are super rare. Of course, south of Red Lake are big 'ski spots, Cliff Lake and Lac Seul.

Location: Lake Country, Wisconsin | I caught one on Red back in HS, maybe low 20s. Flat Lake right next to Red has them as well. None further north than that as far as I am aware, and very very few lakes even around Red have them. Not even sure how the heck they got in there period

| From your reports it seems the musky's go a lot further north in the western portion of Ontario than in eastern Ontario. Shame, I'm in NY just too far to drive sure would like to see these far north ski's. Furthest west I've been was to Nakina and that was ~ 1000 miles. Of course Nakina area has no musky, bass but great pike and walleye.
