Day Trips
Day Trip Fly-in Fishing from our Ear Falls float-plane base.
At Excellent Adventures fishing is taken seriously. We offer unlimited quality fishing for five different species of fish on remote fly-in day lakes. You can do it all in one trip.
Our fly-in fishing day-trips to remote lakes are a popular choice with many of our guests.
We select fly-in lakes where the fishing is unbelievable!
In the spring time, Cat Island lodge can be said to be a lake trout fly-in fisherman’s paradise and dream come true. We also offer day trips here.
Imagine departing our Ear Falls float base aboard your own private float plane and flying to a totally remote lake to fish for the day where you’re the only people.
We make this totally possible for you! In a day-trip!
These Canada fly-out fishing trips have so much to offer, excellent fishing, the thrill of taking off and landing on a totally remote lake, the float plane flight itself with it’s beautiful Canadian scenery the magnificent view of the north country from the air.
Many guests return with the comment that the excellent fishing was just secondary to the rest of the trip. No wonder the day-trip is such a popular fly-in fishing package to our guests on their summer vacations to Canada. This is a fun-filled package for the guests that want a truly memorable experience for there group.
Fly-in Fishing Day-Trip Schedule
Our day trips leave our float base in the morning, flying you to your remote lake for the day where you will find fully equipped boats and motors. Spend the day fishing a secluded lake abundant with fighting walleye, perch, northern pike, smallmouth bass or trout, your choice.
Your lunch can be either a shore lunch of freshly caught fish or a box lunch and sandwiches prepared by our kitchen staff. We’ll pick you up late in the afternoon and bring you back to our base around 5.pm. What a way to see our spectacular Canadian wilderness and enjoy an exciting day of fishing.
The Price Of The Fly-in Fishing Day-Trip
The price of the day trip depends on the aircraft and the number of people attending so call us for details.
The aircraft/float planes we utilize are an “Otter DHC-3”, “Beech 18″, or a “Cessna 185″.
The Otter Dhc-3, a single engine float plane, is well known as being the work horse of the North and has a capacity of 9 persons.
The Beech 18 is a twin engine float plane and has a capacity of 6-8 persons. I generally refer to the Beech 18 as the Cadillac of float planes when it comes to quickness and a smooth trip.
The Cessna 185 is a single engine aircraft and has a capacity of 2-3 persons and of course is used for our smaller groups.
• Otter Dhc-3, Beech 18 – 6 / 8 guests
• Cessna 185 – 2 guests & 1 guide – guide’s air trip is included in the price.
Catch And Release And Conservation
To sustain the spectacular fisheries on these smaller lakes we offer catch and release or conservation limits only on all our day lakes. No trophies out.
In conclusion, the float plane trip, aerial scenery, and the fishing will make the fly-in trip a choice you won’t regret or forget. Your day will be filled with memories and fish stories even the barber won’t believe. As someone once wrote “Memories are made of things like this”
