"The scenic Georgian Bay Archipelago is one of the world's natural wonders with over 30,000 islands stretching from Honey Harbour to the French River!"
Muskellunge, Northern Pike, Large and Smallmouth Bass along with Walleye abound among the thousands of small islands, shoals and locations that include Blackstone Harbour, Woods Bay and Dallas Rapids to name a few. Georgian Bay offers many opportunities for adventure, wildlife viewing and exceptional sportfishing.
TRIP SUMMARY:
Georgian Bay is famous for its huge elusive muskies topping the scales at 50 lbs and plenty of large pike to make your arms fall off. Since 1984, your guide Indrek Kongats, has applied his trade on these waters and knows every musky lair.
You'll be fishing from his 18' customized Grizzly Tracker equipped with a tiller operated 70hp Suzuki four stroke outboard to get you from spot to spot quickly. Your comfort and safety is the key to a memorable trip. His Grizzly is designed and laid out specificaly for Musky fly fishing on Georgian Bay waters but works equally well for non-fly fishers who prefer casting or trolling with regular tackle.
Fly fishing for musky it's all about the strike. The strike is unforgettable! Indrek's own hand tied "Northern Tiger" musky flies are the ticket for catching big muskies and pike on the fly rod. Rain or shine these fish are furious eaters but will hammer your fly whether they're hungry or not, day and night.
Everyday a new area is fished. The beautiful Georgian Bay scenery will mesmerize you. Sleep soundly in comfortable tent cabins and enjoy all the food you can eat. This is an old fashioned fishing experience practising modern day sustainable catch and release.
SEASON:
Our season starts May 1st and runs through to November 30th. The huge advantage of our backcountry camps is that regardless of the season your are always where the action is. In the spring post spawning bays and inlets and in peak summer and fall deeper open water feeding zones. Morning top water action to the late afternoon bite is all at your door step and you are not fishing on the clock! But don't forget those relaxing afternoon naps after lunch!
