I was wondering if anyone here has ever gone on a trip to a fly-in only lake. As there seems to be tons of places, it would be nice to have some recommendations rather than just looking at websites.

 

 

 

Here is a link that will open your eyes really wide. Mike Borger does numerous flyouts every year then writes some of the best descriptive reports I have ever seen.  Don't hesitate to get in touch with him or any of the outfitters he recommends. He did a report on Lakers Unlimited up on lake Athabasca which I read with great enjoyment as I have been there more than a dozen times. I spoke with him about it. His reports contain video, pictures & video of the cabins/facilities as well. Make sure you report on here & share your trip experiences if you go.

I've flown in to a couple different lakes in Northern Ontario about a half-dozen times over the last 35 years. My folks have been going every year for over 30 to the same camp: http://mccuskerlake.com  This is the first year they haven't gone.  Six of us caught over 1500 walleye one week.  Wife and I both caught 35+ in. northerns last trip. 

That camp has new owners for the first time in generations and I'm not sure my folks are going back there.  My mom is still pretty upset that they won't let you take a limit out with you. 

 

 

It is a great experience....but I still reminisce about the days with no running water and no generators...maybe 40 years ago, but seems like yesterday 

 

Still amazes me that you can be on a lake over ten miles long for a week or 10 days and never see another person.  Bears, moose, sure...but no people...and even better, no cell service and no wifi

hopefully, that link is fixed, now...sorry about that

A fly in trip is something that every fisherman should experience in their lifetime. I've only done it once a long time ago but would jump at the chance to do it again.

Going to be quite awhile before I've got that kind of cash laying around and wouldn't feel guilty spending it on myself instead of the family. 

I hear that. Especially with baby and new house fever running rabid through-out the area
