Thank you for your interest in ice fishing this winter at Agate Bay Resort. We offer four, six, or eight hole standard houses and our new ten hole premier ice cabins.

Ice FishingStandard Fish Houses
All of our fishhouses are newer, clean, neat houses. They all have propane lights and heat, bunks with foam mattresses, carpeting, table and chairs, and rattle reels above each of the holes. All that is needed are sleeping bags and pillows. If you like to jig for fish or fish tip ups, bring appropriate equipment. One or two minnow buckets per house, a scoop/ice skimmer, and an assortment of hooks and jigs are also helpful. We sell bait, minnow buckets, scoops, some fishing tackle, pop, and munchies in our lodge as well. We also have a heated restroom and shower facility which is available 24 hours a day on shore.

Fish ShantiesIf you need help deciding on fishhouse sizes, please call and we will be happy to assist you. Our rental houses are moved often throughout the season to keep our customers on fish. Our fishing structure includes some of the best rock structure on Mille Lacs Lake, as well as very good mud areas.

Our six hole houses have four bunks and are designed for three to four people. Our eight hole houses have six bunks and are designed for four to six people. We have found that sometimes not all people want to fish two lines or they may want to put tip up lines outside. If you set tip ups outside they must be at least 25 yards away from any fishhouses to avoid flooding.
