Fishing in Canada - great fishing for lake trout, salmon, pike, rainbows and more

Grayling to salmon

 
„No over-fishing and no hectic photo safaris“ explains a reassuring Hardy Ruf. With the exception of the salmon, you eat what you catch locally, barbecued on the river bank or prepared by the Lodge chef! Since 1987 Dalton Trail Lodge welcomes guests from all over the world and the owners themselves, Trix and Hardy Ruf and Thomas Staub operate the lodge. Thanks to their longtime experience Trix, Hardy and Thomas are the specialists for your angling adventure in the far north. Located in the North American wilderness against an imposing backdrop, it is a veritable angling paradise for fly anglers and spin anglers. In the proximity of the Lodge you can fish for salmon, lake trout, arctic grayling, pike, rainbows, landlocked salmon and Dolly Varden during their corresponding seasons.
 
 

Anglers’ dream

A motorboat is at your disposal on the Lodge’s own 10 mile-long (16 km) lake during your entire stay. Tackle up for a few exploratory casts on arrival or set off on an early morning trip at dawn! Dezadeash Lake offers excellent options for lake trout, pike and grayling - right on the doorstep! Sixmile River, which runs out of the lake, holds grayling, pike and whitefish, while Kathleen River (just 15 minutes away) is a further fascinating angling venue quite close to the Lodge. In summer a guide ferries you to the prime fishing spots by jet-boat. In autumn the best spots for river Namaycush, rainbow trout, white fish and big grayling are within easy walking distance.
 
 

Like the old Trappers

A three-day trip into the wilderness offers you best log cabin comfort, T-bone steak on the sizzling barbecue and all the fishing you want - stress-free in an unspoiled landscape. The Lodge owns several log cabins on the most beautiful lakes in the region, miles away from civilisation. At the end of a successful day’s fishing, there’s nothing better than enjoying your day’s catch, a juicy steak, and a glass of fine wine round the camp fire.
