Luxury Fly-in Outposts - Conservation Polices

We have maintained our fly-in trophy lakes and fisheries by implementing certain fish conservation policies to insure the success of our fisheries for decades to come. Some of our lakes are strictly catch and release. Others are Catch and Consume and Catch and Release. All lakes are offered on the understanding that no trophies are taken. As far as trophies go, its strictly CPR, "Catch, Photograph andRelease" on all of our lakes. Needless to say you must observe the fishing regulations to the letter of the law. Each outpost may have other specific restrictions. Outpost Links: Brownstone Conifer Hailstone Headwaters Papaonga Sumach

The above are strick guidelines. What follows are not strict guidelines but are suggestions that we ask you to consider.

We ask you to review the best fish handling practices to insure that the fish you do release are not doomed to a slow death due to poor handling techniques. We encourage you to remove the barbs from your hooks. This forces you to be a better, more observant fisherman. Using barbless hooks means that once you have a strike you have to keep your rod tip high and avoid any slack in your line. However, if you do break you line, the fish can probably spit out the hood. Once in the boat, you will cause the fish less stress and injury taking out your hooks. Treble hooks kill fish. Please remove your treble hooks and replace then with a single barbless hook.

A fish can stay out of water without injury for about as long as you can hold your breath. Try to land, measure, photograph and release your fish within one minute.

Moose and Bear hunts every fall. Go for a trophy.

About Excellent Adventures

Excellent Adventures operates a Commercial Air Service for our clients. It includes Dehavilland Dhc-3 Otter, Beech 18 and a Cessna 185 aircraft. We also utilize an Aeronca Champ for maintaining and servicing the Outpost Camps. Established in 1990, Excellent Adventures operates six exclusive outpost camps on remote wilderness fly-in only lakes. Five of these are within a 40 minute flight of our Ear Falls float-plane base. Along with fully modern cabins with indoor plumbing we also offer our clients lakes with choices of 6 different species of fish. Whether you are looking for trophy fishing or a lake that offers action packed days, we have it all .

Our fishing is simply World Class. When we began managing our lakes almost twenty years ago, policies were implemented to preserve the productivity of our fisheries. While guests are allowed to bring limits home from most of our lakes they must pay attention to there specific lake policies. All of our lakes have a strict 'No Trophies Home' policy to insure our fisheries remain the quality that makes our guests return year after year. This also includes the policies of 'Catch and Release, consumption of smaller fish only' at our Headwaters Trophy Outpost. Modern ‘life like’ replicas of your trophy fish can be made by today's expert taxidermists from a good photograph and just taking two measurements. We also expect our guest to review and practice proper fish handling to insure that fish returned to the lakes will remain healthy and contribute to next years production. All these lakes are superior in habitat for game fish. They all have flowage through them and the constant supply of water delivers the nutrients that support the food chain that in turn feeds the fish with a never ending supply of prey.

Today with our policies that the trophy fish are returned to the waters unharmed and the spawning population of female fish will grow it assures that these world class lakes maintain there high quality for the next generation of fishermen to enjoy.
