5 Day Fly In Fishing Package

Scott Lake Lodge - Fly Fishing Package

Enjoy Orvis-endorsed accommodations at the Scott Lake Lodge on your fly-fishing trip to Saskatchewan/Northwest Territories, Canada: There are many Canadian fishing lodges, but there is only one with a half a million acres of productive water – more than a lifetime of fishing opportunities; only one with a guide team averaging over twenty years on the water, and only one with first-class facilities and a culture where clients and guides share the dinner table and their life experiences. Scott Lake Lodge is that place where world-class fishing meets world-class customer service. For nearly three decades, the owner/management team has operated with a “we can make it better” philosophy, adding something new and better each year: We never rest, so our clients can. The end result is a crafted experience that brings back our guests year after year. Over the past decade, our customer return rate is 85% and our year-to-year return rate is 55%. It all starts with our location and our resources. Resting on a 12-acre island in the middle of sprawling Scott Lake, the lodge is on the Saskatchewan/Northwest Territories border, offering an unmatched level of solitude. During your time with us, no matter how far from the lodge you roam by boat or floatplane, you will see no one other than the new friends you flew in with (and you will only see them at dinner). There are no other lodges, no other boats, no feeling as you pull into a bay that someone was just here. Just you, your fishing partner, your guide, and all that water to explore. And all those fish! It’s a powerful experience. It’s the Scott Lake Lodge Experience.

Price includes:
  • Roundtrip charter flights on a Dash 8 turboprop from Edmonton, Alberta, to Stony Rapids, Saskatchewan (two-hour flight)
  • Roundtrip floatplane flights to the lodge from Stony Rapids (half-hour flight)
  • Global Rescue medical evacuation insurance
  • One night (double occupancy) at the Renaissance Hotel in Edmonton on your southbound trip • Use of all lodge fishing equipment, including Orvis fly rods and reels
  • Exceptional meals and accommodations
  • Use of recreational equipment (canoes, kayaks, paddleboards, hot tub, sauna, and fitness center)
