Fly-In and Boat-In
Fishing Adventures
in Northwest Ontario, Canada!




Great northern Canadian fishing and outdoor adventures
from remote cabins on wilderness lakes in Ontario's Sunset Country

Have you been thinking how nice it would be to get away somewhere for a little fishing and relaxation? Well, we have just a place! Based in Kenora (see map), Ontario, approximately 130 miles northwest of International Falls, Minnesota, we can fly you to some of the nicest, remote camps in Northwestern Ontario accessible only by float plane. We are the only outfitter on all of our fly-in lakes and can give you complete fishing privacy -- no neighbours!

Canada Outfitters Float Plane
Dock Area at Brown Bear Lake

Boarding in Kenora, we will fly you to a secluded lake that offers excellent fishing for Walleye, Smallmouth Bass, Northern Pike, and Lake Trout. All outposts have short portages to other lakes as well for you to explorer for more fishing action and wilderness scenery. Due to ongoing conservation practices over the years our lakes continually produce an abundance of high quality fisheries. These trophy waters can't be beaten for unlimited fishing opportunities.

All of our cabins are newly constructed and are built with comfort in mind. Each two or three bedroom cabin has tongue and groove pine throughout, fully equipped modern kitchen facilities which include full-size stoves and ovens, refrigerators with freezers, hot and cold running water with hot showers, emergency radio communications and screened in porches with gas barbeques and propane deep fryers. We also run new Mercury motors on 16-foot Lund boats equipped with swivel back seats for your fishing comfort.

Although remote, you're not alone. We fly in and check on all of our guests every other day (weather permitting) to ensure all is well and to bring in additional bait or supplies as needed.

We're easy to reach by automobile or plane with direct air service from Minneapolis daily. We also provide all ground transportation for our guests who fly in.

This really is a great Canadian fishing holiday whether you're an avid fisherman or want to get away, relax for awhile, and enjoy the great outdoors with family and friends. If you would like additional information or references, please call or E-mail us. We will be happy to answer any of your questions.

Let the adventure begin!

Walleye Lake Outposts!

Two Loon Lodge and Eagle's Nest Lodge (Island Camp)
You'll have a great experience angling on Walleye Lake. There are three species of game fish including the ever fighting Smallmouth Bass which range from 1 to 5 lbs. Angling walleye produces on average 1 to 3 lb. with many 4 to 6 lb. fish being caught every season, and limits of 5 to 6 lb. Northern Pike are also common with 10 to 15 lb. lunkers netted regularly. On top of all this, there is a short portage (4 minute walk) to a boat and motor located on Little Walleye Lake. Little Walleye is just loaded with more of the same fishing action. The adventure begins!

There are two deluxe 2 bedroom cottages on Walleye Lake. Eagle's Nest Lodge (located on a island) and Two Loon Lodge (located on a remote point surrounded by water). Both cottages are built with comfort in mind, offering carpeted bedrooms, screened-in porches, and full kitchen facilities. Both cabins are equipped with hot and cold running water and hot showers. All boats and motors on Walleye Lake are 16-foot Lunds outfitted with swivel seats and new Mercury motors. Two Loon and Eagle's Nest camps are over a mile apart and offer all of our guests the remoteness they are looking for. If you are a small group (2 to 4), we can give you a camp all to yourselves. If you are a large group, we will give you both camps, the entire lake, as we are the only outfitter on Walleye Lake. Large group discounts are available.


Norse Lake Outpost: A Prime Canadian Fly-in Lake

Wolve's Den (Beautiful, Deluxe Cabin with Panoramic View - Only Cabin on the Lake)

Norse Lake is a prime example of a remote Canadian fly-in wilderness lake. The lake is protected by high picturesque landscape. On the days when a high wind would normally blow your boat off the average lake, Norse stays pretty calm. Excellent sportfishing consists of Walleye, Northern Pike and Smallmouth Bass. Schools of Walleye average 1-3 lbs., with 4-10 lb. trophies caught every season. The lake also sports a healthy population of Northern Pike with trophies reaching up to and over 40 inches every season. Also, there is a good Smallmouth Bass population reaching up to the 5 lb. class. In addition to Norse Lake, we also have a portage trail along an unspoiled wilderness rapids leading to Little Norse Lake. Little Norse is teaming with more Walleye, Smallmouth and Northern Pike. All you carry is your fishing pole as we already have the boat and motor waiting for you.
The Wolve's Den is a new, two-bedroom, deluxe cottage located on the west end of Norse Lake. It has complete kitchen facilities with hot and cold running water, hot showers, a cathedral ceiling with skylights in the living area, and a large screened-in porch which leads to a beautiful wraparound deck with a view overlooking the lake for 2 miles. Boats and motors are 16-foot Lunds with swivel seats and new Mercury motors. Give us a call for all the details!


Brown Bear Lake Outpost, Four Species of Fish!

Moose Point Lodge (Only Camp on the Lake)


The Brown Bear Lake system is considered to be one of the best fly-in trophy Smallmouth Bass lakes in the area. The Smallmouth in this lake average 2 to 3 lbs. Four lb. fish are common, and trophy wall- hangers (5 to 6 lb.s) are produced every season. Now you would think that would be enough to keep you busy, but we have got more. Portages! Three of them! The first is a 4 minute walk from Brown Bear Lake to the back waters of Midway Lake where two boats and motors are waiting for you. You carry only your fishing rod, and maybe your shorelunch for the day. By boat, you can travel from Midway Lake West to Midway Lake East through a scenic remote waterway about 5 miles long. Both lakes are full of Smallies and fast action Pike. Many of our guests report moose sightings in this area. Now if you are not too tired, we have another portage (4 minute walk) from Midway Lake to Beauty Lake. Beauty Lake is our fighting Lake Trout destination, along with some more of the nicest Smallmouth bass that you will ever see. From here we have one more portage for the devoted Walleye Fisherman. The trail is located at the northwest end of Beauty Lake and it is not for the weak-hearted.
Moose Point Lodge is a deluxe, 3-bedroom cottage and has over one thousand square feet of living space, capable of comfortably accommodating large groups; minimum six guests. The camp is located high on a point with a panoramic view, on a quiet bay in the heart of Brown Bear Lake. This camp is private and remote. It has complete kitchen facilities, hot and cold running water, hot showers, and a large screened-in porch overlooking the lake. All boats are 16-foot Lunds with swivel seats and new Mercury motors. This is an excellent camp for large groups with lots of water and excellent angling throughout the season. Large group discounts are available.

Treelined Lake Outpost: Lunker Smallmouth and Northern Pike.

Black Wolf Lodge (On a Point with Sheltered Bay View - (Only Camp on the Lake)
Picture in your mind a cool, gin clear Canadian lake with lots of fighting trophy Smallmouth Bass and Northern Pike and you've got Treelined Lake. The Smallmouth in this lake are averaging 17 - 18 inches (2-3 lbs.) on every catch with 4 - 5 lb. fish (20-22 inches) taken regularly. The Northern Pike are averaging 5 - 7 lbs. on every catch with 15 - 20 lb. lunkers taken every season. This lake is remarkably clear in that you will be able to sight-fish the Smallmouth Bass close to the shoreline. A camera is a must for this outpost as you will witness follow-ups to the boat with 2-3 Bass at any one time. Wildlife is also abundant in this area. It is very possible to see Moose feeding along the shoreline during the twilight hours and nesting Eagles right across the bay from your cabin. And of course, you can always expect to hear the call of the Canadian Loon to break the silence every evening. This is a beautiful, unspoiled adventure that only a trip with Canadian fly-in outfitter can offer.
New in 1998 was the Black Wolf Lodge, a deluxe, two-bedroom cabin with cathedral ceiling, skylights, large screened-in porch with wraparound deck, complete kitchen facilities, hot & cold running water and hot showers. This cabin, along with our others, is one of the finest in the area. Boats and motors are 16-foot Lunds with swivel seats and new Mercury motors. Give us a call for all the details.
