Adventure with Your Own Private Lake

An Unforgettable Experience

Imagine the welcoming morning aroma of fresh coffee perking and bacon sizzling in the pan. You look up from the grill and catch those last wispy patches of fog rolling off the private lake you’ve got all to yourself. It was selected, in consultation with you, from among the nine diverse locations that dot our map, as the one you’d like best for your on-your-own adventure. Soon you’ll leave the cozy comfort of your hideaway cabin to hop in your own boat, chart your own course and search out the monster fish teeming just below the sparkling surface of the water you hear lapping at the shore.

“Your service, staff and support was, once again, off the charts! Sue and I would like to thank you personally for sending the sling chairs in for us.

Barnett Lake Outpost

Trophy Pike & Walleye

Barnett Lake Outpost
  • A Classic Canadian Outpost Offering the Best of Both Worlds
  • Big Size, Big Numbers, Big Bragging Rights
  • An Angling Bonanza From May Right Through To September

Journey 65 miles north of our float plane base in Flin Flon to beautiful Barnett Lake. Your dream of adventure fishing takes a wilder turn when you reach this seven-mile long, 70 foot deep, tea-colored body of water fed by a creek in its south east corner and home to phenomenal walleye and pike. This remote lake absolutely teems with pike in the 30” to 40” size range and it’s not uncommon to boat one upwards of 45”. World class walleye fishing is Barnett’s rule-of- thumb with groups catching up to 18 trophy sized (over 28”) walleye in one week and lake records shooting upwards of 35”. If you dream big, Barnett Lake is for you!

Siers Lake Outpost

Something for Everyone

  • Three Unique Lakes, Three Unique Fishing Experiences
  • Experience the Tradition and Adventure of Portaging
  • Outstanding Fishing Opportunities From May To September

Located 60 miles north of our floatplane base in Flin Flon and 40 miles from the nearest road, Siers Lake puts the “wild” in wilderness. Our cabin on this popular outpost location is the only structure on the three diverse lakes Siers opens up to you. With an average depth of 20’, Siers itself is a shallow tea-hued body that sets the bar high time and again for excellent walleye fishing, both in numbers and size. Large pike are not uncommon either, making for added excitement when that massive jack decides to take a pass at your walleye jig.

To the north lies Einarson Lake, 30’ deep and connected to Siers by a creek. Crystal clear, cold, and spring-fed, Einarson is alive with lake trout and giant walleye. Average trout size is 3 to 5 pounds, with several in the 20 to 30 pound range also recorded.

Last of the trio is Bear Lake, accessible via a short portage off Siers’ southeast corner. With a structure and fish resembling those of Siers, Bear Lake offers walleye aplenty and ample large pike waiting to bend your pole and pull your drag.

This is a triple threat fisher’s heaven!


Cairns Lake Outpost

The People’s Choice

Cairns Lake Outpost
  • Walleye, Pike and Lakers In Both Size and Numbers
  • Midsummer Walleye Hotspots Right By Your Cabin
  • Breathtaking, Picturesque Terrain Surrounded By 400 ft. Hills

You’ll love it. Everybody does. Cairns is one of the most picturesque lakes in Canada, situated 60 miles north of our float base and 40 miles from the nearest road and surrounded by 400’ hills. Your two-bedroom cabin is nestled on a beautiful sand beach that just happens to be a hot bed for midsummer walleye fishing. Ten miles from tip to tip and part of the Waysaykamik River system, this vibrant body of water boasts abundant quantities of lake trout and pike, as well as walleye, enough to keep the most rigorous fishers busy. Although the lake has an average depth of 30’ to 40’, the lake trout pull together in schools for the summer season in holes that punch down to 80’! One of our most popular outposts, Cairns Lake will become your annual tradition, as it has for many of our guests.


Hassett Lake Outpost

Lake Trout Central

  • THE Lake Trout Capital of the Kississing Family of Outposts
  • Waters So Clear You Can See Your Trophy Trout 10 ft. Down
  • 100 Plus Pike-A-Day Bonus With Short Portage to Nearby Guthrie Lake

Hassett was constructed of milled logs in 2002, with no expense spared making it an ideal haven for adventurers who want to put aside the walleye jigs and focus on the big guys for a week. The cabin sits in the southeast corner of the lake, in the epicenter of its best trout fishing. Two by three miles in size and 110' deep, Hassett’s spring-fed waters are so clear you can see the trout on your line, 10 feet down! And watch out for the giant pike cruising the shallows!

A quarter mile from the cabin lies Hassett’s sister lake, Guthrie. A 20-30 minute walk takes you to a fishery that couldn’t be more different. Guthrie’s shallow tea-colored waters offer pike the same way Hassett offers trout – big in both numbers and size. It hardly matters what lure you use; daily catches of 100 fish or more are common. Guthrie is a pike factory not to be missed! Hassett and Guthrie offer an irresistible combination of trout and pike fishing that will keep lines tight and have you crying “Fish on!” from sunup to sundown.


Waskwei Lake Outpost
