Trophy lake fishing at a lodge on Great Bear Lake

The lake trout and arctic grayling fishing at Great Bear Lake is best described as the ultimate northern lake fishing experience. A 74 pound lake trout was caught and released here in 1995. The lake also holds many other IGFA records in recent years. The water of Great Bear Lake is very cold and relatively shallow which makes fishing vastly different from the lower latitudes. You can troll, cast and jig in crystal clear water rarely deeper than 15 feet. The fly fisherman can challenge these shallow lakers on streamer patterns. Expert guides take you through this breathtaking arctic wilderness and when the fishing day is over you can relax back at the deluxe lodge in the land of the midnight sun.
