You will have the camp and the lake all to yourself as there are no other camps on the lake and no other party will be booked with yours. You'll only find an unrestricted schedule where you can fish, relax and enjoy the Yukon wilderness at your own pace. Gear suggestions: One medium weight-spinning rod with ten to fifteen pound line on a good quality reel is adequate. An ultra light spinning outfit is recommended for grayling, with 4-6 lb line. If you are a fly-fisherman, bring your fly rod, both floating and sinking lines, plus heavy leaders for the trout and pike. Trout and Pike flyfishing requires a fairly heavy rod (8wt+). Streamer flies should be large: 2.5"- 4" in length. They should have a minnow-like action. White, yellow and red are common and successful colors. Fly fishing for grayling requires much lighter gear with a 4-6 wt rod being best, full sink and sink tip lines and tapered leaders. Sinking patterns are more productive than floating patterns, with darker patterns (i.e. black gnat, mosquito, wooly bugger, doc sprately) being best in sizes 6-14. Each tackle box should also have needle-nose pliers, 6"-9" steel leaders, snap swivels, fish handling gloves and a selection of sinkers and lures. For Lake Trout - Almost any 3"-6" diving plug will do. A favorite is the Bagley extra-deep shad. Most 3"-5" spoons also work well. A few of our favorites are: 3" chartreuse Kit-A-Mat; 3" and 5" Five of Diamonds; 3" Little Cleos; 5" Crocodiles; 3" Kamloopers; 3" Kastmasters. 1/2 oz. lead headed jigs with red and white bodies work very well. For Pike also add surface plugs, bucktail spinners and daredevil spoons. As for general lure color: chartreuse, orange, red, white and yellow combinations for the best action.
