Whether you want to wade the rivers of the Yukon for Arctic Char, fish the Miramichi for Atlantic Salmon, experience the thrill of salt water flats fishing in Central America or the tranquility of landing Cutthroat Trout in the Rockies, WILSON'S can make your dreams a reality!


ONTARIO - LOCAL GUIDED TRIPS
Since we opened in 1998 the staff at WILSON'S has been driving the backroads of Ontario looking for new water that is not heavily fished. Rivers such as the Beaver, Boyne, Credit, Ganaraska, Grand, Mad, Maitland, Nottawasaga and Saugeen are all productive but, depending on the time of year, typically under heavy angling pressure. There is other water that is just as productive but not well known to even local anglers. We have guided packages available for day and weekend trips with stays at some of the best hotels, resorts and intimate bed & breakfasts in Ontario. Check out our 'Recommended Accommodation' in the 'Links' section of our website and contact the store to set up your trip.

MANITOBA - KNEE LAKE LODGE
As any fly fisher will tell you, northern Manitoba is synonymous with pike and fishermen in the know consider Knee Lake Lodge a pike fisher's paradise
! You will be hard-pressed to find another location in North America that offers a similar combination of the quality of fishing, guides, accommodation and price. Check out www.kneelake.mb.ca or contact the store
for details.

NEW BRUNSWICK - MIRAMICHI RIVER
The Wilson family has been on the Miramichi since 1804 and have hosted Atlantic Salmon flyfishermen since 1855. One of North America's oldest continuously-operating fishing lodges, Wilson's Sporting Camps is a "must" destination for fly fishermen who want to complete their fly fishing resume. WILSON'S hosts a number of trips each year to the family lodge - please contact the store for details !

QUEBEC - GASPE
Ann Smith, the owner of Quebec Sporting, has been guiding and fishing the rivers of the Gaspe since 1974 and she runs one of the best operations on the eastern seaboard. If you have ever wanted to fly fish the Dartmouth, York or St. Jean, Quebec Sporting can tailor a package to meet your needs. Please check out www.quebecsporting.com or call our store for details.

YUKON - INCONNU LODGE
Fishing in the Yukon is as close to paradise as you can get and Inconnu Lodge is the icing on the cake ! At Inconnu clients are flown by float plane or helicopter to a differenct destination each day of your trip. Catching a huge number of lake trout, dolly varden, northern pike, arctic grayling and sheefish isn't the question, it's how large they will be... and how many moose, caribou and grizzlies you have to fish around each day! The accommodation and food is some of the best we have seen in North America and side trips include alpine heli-hiking and seeing the Cirque of the Unclimbables (stunning!) and Virginia Falls on the Nahanni River (breathtaking !) in the Northwest Territories. Jim Wilson is hosting a trip back to Inonnu July 6-11, 2006 at $5,495.00 USD per person. please check out www.inconnulodge.com or contact the store for details.
