This September has had unusually hot weather, though it’s hard to call any weather “usual” in September.

While the weather isn’t reliable this time of year, the fishing generally is! It’s a great time for fall crappies, walleye, or muskies like these ones.

Choosing to vacation on an island comes with a unique accommodation experience- offering a closeness to nature (including the fish!) and peaceful mornings and evenings like these with no vehicle traffic.

We love sharing our piece of paradise with those who love the ‘island life’ experience as much as we do!

Congratulations to Kevin on this 48” musky! Nice fish (and love seeing the King Island gear too)!

It was a successful late July trip for Terry and Jim!

On the topic of long-time guests, Terry is nearing 50 years of visiting King Island to find these muskies, the only year he missed was when COVID shut down the border!

What a catch for 7-year-old Eddie! His 41” musky was an exciting start to the weekend, it makes us so happy to see the next generation of anglers catching some big ones!

Some more great photos from this awesome group, incredibly enough Carol’s first trip to King Island was when she was 5 years old!
It’s amazing to think of the changes she’s witnessed over more than 8 decades.

It’s so great to have Carol back again this year, still proving she can out fish her sons!

July has been a blast so far, looking forward to sharing some photos. But first, here’s a look back at some of the great walleye fishing this group enjoyed in June. Thanks for making King Island your home base for a successful Lake of the Woods fishing trip!

Our social media has been quiet, but the fishing has not been! Luckily we can always count on Brett for a great photo of a big fish like this 48” musky. Congrats on another beauty!

We will try to do better keeping the fish on your feed and showing off what a trip to King Island has to offer.

New this year!
We added a gazebo to our front dock swimming area, perfect for taking a break from the sun or watching the sunset to the west while escaping any bugs.

Anyone with sharp eyes may have spotted it at the back dock in our last post, but that was just its winter home to minimize the chance of ice damage. Can’t wait to see it used this summer!

2024 season preparations have begun!
The morning boat rides are still chilly and the leaves aren’t back yet, but the ice is out nice and early and we’ve made our first few trips to King Island. Can’t wait to welcome our first guests in a couple weeks for walleye opener!

For Throwback Thursday we’re throwing it way back- here is some of the story of how King Island started out, as told by the founder himself, Kendall Hanson in a 1980 publication. And yes, that does mean King Island is almost 100 years old and almost 100 years in the Hanson family, we’ll be celebrating in 2026!

Can’t beat this for a photo recreate from last summer! Beau and his son Rylan, 27 years apart with their first muskies. Both about 10 years old and caught these 40” muskies close to King Island.. what a family memory!
