Candlewood Lake is the top rated bass fishing lake in Connecticut! Candlewood is located just 70 miles north of New York City. This camp is situated on Pine Island and offers a true camping experience. Campers will go on two guided trips per day with their guides. All of our guides are top ranked collegiate anglers, local guides and professional anglers from around the country.

Campers will learn to target post spawn large and smallmouth bass using the latest techniques while fishing on fully loaded tournament rigged bass boats. In the spirit of competitive fishing, they will engage in week-long tournaments that will recognize winners in the categories of biggest bass, most species caught, total weight, and more.

Other activities at camp include swimming, group evening fires, team-building activities, and more. There is a strong emphasis on boating safety, sun protection, ethical catch-and-release practices, and building life-long friendships.

Campers will stay on Pine Island, sleep in large tents on comfortable cots and experience a tech-free week making new friends and catching big bass!
