Reviews & Reputation

Summarized Review Highlights

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

The fishing is the clear centerpiece of guest praise. Walleye fishing in particular is described as exceptional, with days of 50 or more fish not uncommon, and catches regularly ranging from 18 to 27 inches, with some individuals landing fish in the 28-inch range. Northern pike in the 28-inch-plus class are also frequently encountered. The accommodations reviewed at Nungesser Lake are described 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 itself offers 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.

Based on the available reviews, there are no recurring complaints to report. Guests across both reviews express straightforward satisfaction with the fishing, staff, and facilities. This destination appears best suited for 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 experience with quality equipment and strong fish counts.
