    Windy AI 08 July 2026
    Lake Sakakawea is a 368,000-acre USACE reservoir on the Missouri River in western North Dakota, the third-largest reservoir in the United States by water capacity and one of the most productive walleye lakes in North America. Named for the Shoshone woman Sacagawea who guided the Lewis and Clark Expedition, it supports extraordinary walleye, yellow perch, and northern pike fishing that draws anglers from across the upper Midwest. Spot Features: Lake Sakakawea is a massive 368,000-acre USACE reservoir on the Missouri River in McLean, Mercer, and Mountrail counties, North Dakota, one of the largest reservoirs in the United States. Walleye are targeted by trolling crankbaits and jig-and-minnow rigs, yellow perch on small minnow rigs in fall, northern pike with large lures and live bait near the weed edges. Multiple boat ramps and marinas provide access. Seasonality: Walleye are the primary sport fish at Lake Sakakawea in North Dakota, with peak fishing in spring during the spawning period and in fall when fish feed aggressively before winter. Yellow perch are most catchable in fall. Northern pike are most aggressive in spring and fall. Chinook salmon were stocked in the lake and may be present.
