Devils Lake, ND
Lake in Ramsey County, North Dakota. North Dakota's largest natural lake, a sprawling, ever-expanding closed-basin prairie lake near the city of the same name. Decades of rising water flooded farmland and roadbeds, creating a maze of timber, structure and bays that grows giant walleye, jumbo yellow perch, white bass and trophy northern pike. One of the Upper Midwest's premier multi-species and ice-fishing destinations.
