Review Highlights

Rusty Myers Flying Service gets overwhelmingly positive reviews from guests. Multiple reviewers call it the best fly-in outfitter they have used after trying several others. Guests show strong loyalty and satisfaction, and say they would not consider going elsewhere for a fly-in fishing trip.

Guests consistently highlight the quality of the fishing. Reviewers describe near-constant action, with walleye ranging from 15-inch fish up to the 24-inch range depending on the spots fished. The operation gives access to around 10 outpost destinations, including Wabakimi Lake, which has been featured on outdoor television. Reviewers praise the staff and ownership for professionalism and hospitality, and one calls them "a class act."

Reviewers raise no recurring complaints. Every reviewer gave the highest rating and expressed enthusiasm. The operation suits walleye anglers looking for a classic Ontario fly-in outpost trip, from fly-in veterans wanting a reliable operation to first-timers looking to make the fly-in experience a reality. Groups of fishing buddies and those interested in remote, self-guided outpost-style trips are the core audience.

Brennan is very shoaly.....watch out!

The front man needs to keep a close eye out for rocks. Thankfully Rusty uses the 9.9 so when you hit a rock you should be ok. Brennan was my least favorite lake of Rusty's I have fished. It was windy and crummy weather the whole trip. Our best spot was straight out from the dock to a rock face in the early morning. One perk on Brennan are the extra cabins, so snorers are able to be separated.

Brennan lake, any input?

I stayed at Brennan through Rusty Meyers in late May early June 2008. It took some time to get into a lot of fish but we did it. We had a group of eight guys. A fantastic live well in the house down by the dock kept dozens of minnows alive for several days; several comfortable cabins and a GREAT big cabin with a fireplace for eating and socializing; a real nice flat rock area for a fire at night. Rusty reserves the right to put multiple groups into Brennan unless you arrange ahead of time. Plenty of pike and walleye.

Went to Brennen Lake last year, second time we have been there. Great facilities and staff. Only fished walleye but the fishing was great once you found the spots. Even in Canada 90% of the fish are in 10% of the water.
