Tell Me About Your Trip

The more you can tell me up front, the faster I can help: your dates (or a few options), how many are coming, how many days you’d like to fish, and the ages of any kids.

I’ll only use this to reply to you. No mailing lists. — Jeb

Quick Answers

What should I tell you when I get in touch?

Your dates (or a few options), how many people are coming, how many days you’d like to fish, and the ages of any kids. I’ll match you with the right cabin for your group.

Can I book online?

No. See which weeks are open in our live calendar, then call, text or email me. I can hold your dates for two weeks while you round up the group, and a $500 US deposit per person confirms the trip.

When should we book?

The season runs May 15 to September 30, and June fills first. Many groups book next summer’s trip over the winter. Packages & rates

Where do we meet the float plane?

At the River Air float base, #1 Second Street Dock in downtown Kenora. Be there by 7:30 a.m.; the flight to camp takes about 30 minutes. Getting to Kenora has driving directions and a town map.

Can I talk to you about the fishing before I book?

Please do. I’ve fished Sydney Lake since I was five, and I’m happy to talk about what’s biting when, which cabin suits your group, or anything else. More answers are on the FAQ page.
