About this water
Waubay Lake in the Waubay National Wildlife Refuge area is a productive prairie lake known for excellent walleye and northern pike fishing in northeastern South Dakota. The lake system is part of a complex of interconnected wetlands that support diverse fish populations. Spring and fall walleye fishing near rocky points and weed edges is particularly productive.
