Super for Trophy Brook Trout - Spinners, Spoons, Trolling, Worms & Flies
Brook Trout Released at Boat
75 Years of Wild Brook Trout in a Wilderness Retreat
Four generations spin fishermen and fly-fishermen have enjoyed catching and dining on wild Brook Trout from the deep cold waters of Kwagama Lake. At a time when rules, regulation and regiment has taken over at many fishing destinations, it is rare to find a place like Kwagama. Four generations after the lodge was opened, our guests continue to catch wild trophy Brook Trout. We are proud of our results with fish management. Our position is closely aligned with that of Trout Unlimited and the Federation of Fly Fishers. We are confident that the grandchildren of our grandchildren will continue to catch wild trophy Brook Trout at Kwagama Lake Lodge.
Our photo gallery shows recent pictures of our beautiful trout. The fishing is as good (some say better) than it ever has been. Our current pictures are a testament to the effectiveness of our resource management.
Kwagama Lake Lodge is fortunate to have a unique resource. We cherish our Brook (speckled) Trout almost as much as we cherish our guests. Because of the large population of Brook Trout in the lake, the Ontario Ministry of Wildlife has actually suggested that more fish should be harvested from Kwagama Lake. To accomplish this goal, our guests enjoy freshly caught Brook Trout while in camp and are welcome to take a few fish home. Of course, our guest must adhere to the Ontario fishing regulations.
Reasonable is the Rule
Because of the seclusion of the lodge and the abundance of fish, Kwagama Lake Lodge is a bit more relaxed than many trout fishing destinations. Most guests understand that an old fish is a trophy fish. Our guests love to catch trophy sized Brook Trout. We find that guests are most likely to keep and eat the Brook Trout in the 15-18 inch size range. When bigger fish are caught, many of our guests choose to take a picture and then gently release the fish, especially those over 20 inches. Many of the larger fish never leave the water when caught. Our fly fishermen are as gentle with these big fish as they were with their first born child. They cherish the resource as much as we do. We are confident that Kwagama Lake will continue to produce superior quality Brook trout fishing for generations to come. Even our most conservation oriented guests are comfortable with our approach once they understand our resource.
