World Class
Salmon Fishing
Two legendary rivers. Experienced local guides. Atlantic salmon runs that have drawn anglers from around the world for generations. This is what Southern Labrador is famous for.
The Forteau River
The Forteau River runs directly past the lodge — which means your first cast of the morning is minutes away. Known for strong runs of Atlantic salmon and sea-run speckled brook trout, the Forteau offers everything from pools suited to beginners to technical holds that challenge experienced fly fishers.
Our guides have spent lifetimes on this river. They know every pool, every run, and the rhythms of the season. Whether it’s your first time chasing Atlantic salmon or your twentieth, they’ll put you in the right place at the right time.
The Pinware River
The Pinware River is bigger, wilder, and draws some of the largest Atlantic salmon in the world. Set against dramatic river valley scenery that feels untouched by time, a multi-day Pinware expedition is the kind of trip serious anglers remember for the rest of their lives.
Guided multi-day packages include round-trip transport, lodging, and all meals. We build every Pinware trip around your group — your schedule, your experience level, and what you want from the water.
When to Come
The rivers fish differently through the season. Here’s what to expect month by month.
Season Opens
First salmon arrive. Cold water, fresh fish. Ideal for early-season fly patterns and exploratory casts.
Peak Runs
The strongest salmon runs of the season. Most sought-after weeks. Book well in advance.
Reliable Fishing
Consistent action on both rivers. Warmer water, longer days. Brook trout fishing also excellent.
Autumn Colours
Spectacular scenery, fewer crowds. Late salmon and prime brook trout season. A special time to visit.
The Sea is Calling
Between river sessions — or as a standalone day out — the waters off the Labrador coast offer their own unforgettable experiences.
Cod Jigging
Traditional cod jigging from a boat — a Labrador experience unlike anything else. Drop a line in some of the richest cold-water fishing grounds on the Atlantic coast.
Whale Watching Tours
Minke, humpback, and fin whales feed in the waters off the coast all summer. Boat tours give you a close-up encounter with some of the ocean’s most impressive creatures.
Iceberg Encounters
In spring and early summer, ancient icebergs drift south past the coast. We can take you alongside these towering walls of 10,000-year-old Arctic ice — unforgettable.
All sea excursions arranged on request — ask us when booking your fishing package.
