Canada Fishing Holidays

In the remote wilderness of Yukon, anglers can enjoy exclusive fly and lure fishing for trophy Lake Trout and Northern Pike. Set on a pristine 60-square-mile lake and limited to just 12 guests, this is a true wilderness fishing experience. Lake trout from 5–20lb are regularly caught on the fly, while giants of 25–50lb can be targeted deeper using jigging techniques. Shallow bays and reefs also hold excellent numbers of hard-fighting northern pike, with fish to 30lb possible.

Further south in British Columbia, the mighty Fraser River offers world-class fishing for the legendary White Sturgeon. These prehistoric giants are measured in feet rather than pounds, with fish of 5–7ft common and monsters of 8–10ft always possible—creating one of the greatest freshwater big-fish adventures on Earth.

Kluane Wilderness Lodge, located on Wellesley Lake is accessible only by floatplane from Whitehorse (around 90 minutes). Fish for trophy Lake Trout and prolific Northern Pike in a vast, untouched wilderness setting. Char from 4–16lb, with fish exceeding 20lb possible, while pike to 20lb+ provide exciting sport in the lake’s shallow bays and weed beds. For nature lovers and photographers, the wildlife viewing opportunities here are quite exceptional. Guests see wolf, lynx, moose, loons, bald eagle and numerous other birdlife.

Based in Chilliwack, just 90 minutes from Vancouver, Cascade Fishing Adventures offers premier private jet boat charters on the scenic Fraser River for massive White Sturgeon, which peak between May and October.
