We are proud to offer in service our new high-powered pontoon boat - the 'Boo Barge'. Flown in & built on-site, we motorized it with a 50 hp Yamaha. It has proven to be a super-stable platform for fly-fishing while anchored or drifting over the trout spawning reefs; or for slow trolling in comfort!

And the fishing at this time of season is absolutely awesome! During the shallow water fishing on the spawning reefs with fly-rod or ultra-light spin casting, we regularly see as many as 40-80 trout per day per boat (two fishermen), with record days producing as many as 115! Trout average from the 6 -15 lbs, with many caught weekly in the 20-40 lb range. Arctic grayling along the Thelon & Back Rivers are truly world-class, with fly-rod or ultra-light producing 40-50 at a standing. The grayling here average 2.5 - 4 lbs.! On calm evenings, the BIG lake grayling will come in and surface feed right off the camp beach!

The trophy fishing during the spawn is at it's absolute best - the caribou are migrating, the musk-oxen herds are gathering, the autumn colors on the tundra are magnificent, and the northern lights are dancing! | |

Trophy lake trout & Arctic grayling fishing just doesn't get any better than this! | |
