Explore Kabetogama Lake
The name Kabetogama has many translations. One of our favorites is ?the lake that lies alongside another? (Rainy Lake). In the Ojibwe language, Kabe means ?all? and Ogema means ?chief.? At the Kabetogama Lake Resorts, we think perhaps it simply means God?s Country.
Don?t worry if you can?t pronounce it (cab-uh-toe-ga-muh) or spell it. Just call it ?Kab,? and you?ll sound like a local.

History & Status of the Fishery
A standard lake survey was completed on Loiten Lake in 2015 as part of a scheduled investigation in accordance with the Loiten Lake management plan. Loiten is a 94 acre lake located within Voyageurs National Park. It is located in the mass of land between Kabetogama and Rainy Lake, and is part of a chain of lakes including Quill, War Club, and Locator. There is a camping site available to reserve through Voyageurs National Park.
Loiten was stocked with Largemouth Bass in 1950 and 1965 to create a unique fishery in an area where there are otherwise few opportunities to pursue these fish. The stocking produced a self-sustaining population of fish in Loiten. Largemouth Bass are difficult to sample with standard netting gear used in surveys, so angling was used to sample a better representation of the population during the 2015 survey. The population is characterized by large numbers of small to medium sized fish. Angling is excellent, with a fish measured about every nine minutes. Largemouth up to 16.2 inches were caught, and an average fish measured 12.5 inches. The only other species of fish sampled were Rock Bass, and they were present in very low numbers.
Steep drop offs around most of the lake concentrate fish in the small area of shallow water near shore. This means that most of the desirable fishing areas are within reach of anglers casting from shore. While many experienced anglers would enjoy the fast paced action on Loiten, this would also be an excellent lake to take kids or new anglers to learn how to catch bass while enjoying some beautiful scenery.
