English River out of Minaki?

Anyone ever fly with Big North Lodge?

Thanks.

We used to stay with Big North Lodge on Minaki for years. Alex and his wife were great and the place was beautiful and well run. Top notch...

I guess the only reason we quit going there is we were willing to give up a little on appearances to save a little money. If the $ doesn't shock you(I haven't even priced him out in 5+ years), I'd say go for it since he runs a great lodge. The only thing I wasn't clear on is you mentioned the English river. We stayed right on the Minaki system (winnipeg river chain), are you talking about a fly-out or the original lodge???

MY opinion....There's so much great fishing in Canada, all over the place. I am by no means cheap at all, but the prices some of these places charge are simply outrageous! I'm sure they do a nice job at Big North Lodge, but look at that price quote...YIKES

Thanks a lot for the info!!!!

We are going on a fly in to Rogers Lake, its part of the english river system.

Good to know they are a top notch outfit. We actually got one hell of a deal on this trip, by reserving it at a sports show.

Thanks again!
