Enodah Wilderness Travel
Yellowknife, Northwest Territories
The only sportfishing lodge on the 100-mile North Arm of Great Slave Lake, 15 minutes by floatplane from Yellowknife.
Overview
Trout Rock Lodge is run by Enodah Wilderness Travel Ltd. and sits on the North Arm of Great Slave Lake in the Northwest Territories. Trout Rock Lodge is the original location for Enodah and as the only sportfishing lodge on the 100-mile-long North Arm.
Enodah operates from Yellowknife and has one fishing lodge, with no outposts. The company has hosted anglers from all over the world for more than 20 years. Its main fishing product is a multi-day summer trophy pike package.
The lodge also runs aurora viewing packages and winter activities, including ice fishing, dog sledding, snowshoeing and snowmobiling.
Highlights
The Fishing
The fishing at Trout Rock Lodge is for trophy northern pike. The lodge sits in an archipelago of thousands of islands with shallow weedy bays. There is plenty of baitfish and no fishing pressure. The lodge operates a catch and release policy. The best fishing holes are very close to the lodge, so little time is spent travelling to the fishing grounds.
Peak season runs late May to late July, and 99 percent of clients catch a pike of 40 inches or better in that period. In-Fisherman field editor Matt Straw says lots of pike over 40 inches are found here. Summer days bring more than 20 hours of daylight.
Summer packages run 3, 5 or 7 full days of fishing. They include a boat and motor with one guide for every two guests. Winter guests can also fish through the ice.
Accommodations
Guests stay at Trout Rock Lodge in lodge rooms and cabins. The rooms are designed for 4 guests. Meals are prepared by a resident cook and staff, and the summer fishing packages include accommodation and meals on an American Plan basis.
The lodge is on an island away from city lights and traffic noise. Its aurora package lists a woodstove-operated hot tub among the amenities.

Getting There

When the lake is frozen, the lodge is reached by a 1.5-hour van and Hagglund ride from Yellowknife. The outfitter also lists snowmobile and ski-plane as ways to reach the lodge.
