2 Anglers: $700 Cdn per 8 hour day + ($100) per additional person, 4 max.

Fishing out of the boat for the day will be out of a 21' Pro Multi-Species Boat. With all the recent top of the line electronics. Active Target forward facing sonar, HD Structure Scan, 3D, SI/DI imaging and three Downriggers. The 21' boat has the most versatility of any setup out there and can offer all types of fishing needed for these bodies of water. It has the ability to access more untouched water, and get out further than other 16' boats. All this being offered, provides the best bang for your buck compared to prices out there with a small, more minimalist setup and restricted to small sheltered areas to fish.

The waters we fish. Even with all the changing conditions. We almost never have to cancel for weather, we have options to pick other sections of the system to fish that’s got great water and sheltered from most elements when they occur. Can fish in anything but thunderstorms and hurricane winds.

*** With Recent Fuel costs skyrocketing with a big Fuel Tank (189L), unfortunately we've had to increase prices. They're forecasting $2.5/L this next summer. This and other operating costs have become alot higher. We've tried to keep the increase as minimal as possible while trying to keep it more affordable for clients.

*** Prices do not Include Gratuities or fishing Licences.

-In order to secure bookings for the year. Please try to secure a date with a deposit by Feb/March of that year as we get booked up solid for the season. Please check back with us 1-2months in advance of the dates you were looking at, as cancellations do happen from time to time.

- Lunches not included. see FAQS page

-We usually meet clients at one of the launches for the day.

We do occasional bring Photography and video gear on board when room allows. Pro Mirrorless Camera and Go Pro's.

To get a few good chance at some big brook trout we usually suggest booking 2-3 days. This gives you good opportunities and will take into account if Mother Nature throws a wrench or two into your plans with some bad weather or low pressure systems coming through.

We work with other guides in the area if you require trips for a larger groups using multiple boats. Please secure these dates far enough in advance in order for us to organize these kind of trips.

Some camping spots you can even fish from shore.

WHEN TO BOOK:

Dates

The Lake

Anywhere from Late May to Mid September is really good on Lake Nipigon. The habitat preferences change throughout the season but action stays great.

Lake Nipigon is great all season long. Big Brook trout, Lake Trout and Northern Pike are all a possibility on this giant lake.

The River:

Most like to book in June for the river bite. Late May right up until to Mid Sept at closer is great. The biggest factor in success of this system is 1.Fishing pressure 2.Barometric Pressure. Outside those two factors we can't control the river maintains it good fishing throughout the whole season. Ask us when's a great time to book outside the high fishing pressure time.

Depending on Species certain times of the year can be amazing for fishing. Give us message and we'll help you set up a time to book!

But the Nipigon doesn’t give up her secrets so easily. This large watershed has sent more anglers home empty-handed than most fishing shows will admit! Even filming 6 days for one 20min segment.

Knowing where to go, when to go, and what to look for can really make a difference. Thats why booking with a guide will put you in the best opportunities you'll have on this system.

*Also this system has a lot of Hazards, None that are marked. You must be able to navigate this system properly. Best way to learn is from a guide. There are several boats every year that take their lower ends off or worse. They are left stranded on the Lake/River and put in perilous situations.

**There are NO maps for this system and very little to no Cell Phone coverage.
