While you’re out and about around Rough Rock Outpost, make sure you set a day aside to try our shore lunch! Our guests really enjoy the freshly-caught fish lunch we offer on the shore. After you’ve been out on the lake fishing, you get to relax while your guide sets up a campfire and fires up the frying pan, fillets and seasons the fish with a tasty combination of flour and spices, then fries them up on an open flame fire. This is no ordinary shore lunch with just a can of pork and beans and few potatoes. Rough Rock Outpost guides raise your expectation of a shore lunch to new levels. The distinctive sizzle of outdoor cooking and the taste of fresh fish under the beautiful Canadian sky make for some of the greatest memories at Rough Rock Outpost.
