Reviews & Reputation

Review Highlights

Bob Green's Fishing Camps has a strong reputation among guests, with reviewers consistently awarding top marks and calling the trip a highlight or a "bucket list" trip. The camp has a long family history and is currently run by Rob Green and his son Robert, who are welcoming, knowledgeable, and hands-on with guests. Guests single out staff members, including Robbie and MaryAnn, for going above and beyond to make trips memorable.

The fishing is the clear centerpiece of guest praise. Walleye fishing is exceptional, with days of 50 or more fish not uncommon, and catches regularly ranging from 18 to 27 inches, with some anglers landing fish in the 28-inch range. Northern pike in the 28-inch-plus class are also frequently encountered. Guests describe the accommodations at Nungesser Lake as comfortable and well-equipped, with spacious multi-bedroom cabins featuring full kitchens, running water, showers, screened porches, and decks. Boats provided are 16-foot Lunds with 20-horsepower Honda 4-stroke motors. The lake has over 20 miles of navigable water with varied structure, and guests report feeling as though they had it largely to themselves despite other operations being present on the lake.

Guests express straightforward satisfaction with the fishing, staff, and facilities. The camp suits walleye and pike anglers of any experience level, including first-timers being introduced to fly-in fishing, as well as small groups or buddies looking for a remote, self-sufficient outpost with quality equipment and strong fish counts.
