Fishing

Centuries ago glaciers filled thousands of lakes in northern Manitoba with runoff water as they receded to the North. As the lakes overflowed a river began to cut a path between them and the Laurie River was born. Today this slow flowing tributary to the mighty Churchill River provides sport fishermen from around the world with some of the finest Northern Pike, Walleye and Lake Trout found anywhere on earth.

Strategically located in the heart of the finest Pike and Walleye habitat Manitoba (perhaps the entire world) has to offer McGavock Lake and Laurie River Lodge provide sport fishermen a perfect place to base their quest for the prized Trophy Northern Pike. Each year our guests catch hundreds and hundreds of Pike 40" or better and literally thousands of Pike between 30 and 40 inches. Over the years many fish in excess of 50 inches have been caught in the productive waters of the Laurie River and surrounding lakes. In 2023 Laurie River Lodge anglers caught well over 250 trophy Pike! The fact that the number of trophy fish caught at Laurie River Lodge increases every successive year attests to the fact that our catch and release policies along with proper handling techniques are really paying off.

Walleye also abound in the Laurie River. The same slow flowing system that created hundreds of shallow water bays for the Pike also provides a perfect habitat for spawning Walleye. The rocky points and numerous reefs provide optimum summer cover making them great places to catch Walleye in July and August. Fun to catch, great to eat, fresh Walleye is the key ingredient to the daily shore lunches cooked up by our professional guides. While they are great to eat our Walleye regularly attain trophy size of 28 inches with some fish over 30" available making them almost as sought after as the Northern Pike by trophy fishermen.

Not to be outdone by the Pike and Walleye, the Laurie River system also produces some huge Lake Trout. In 2023 we had many Lakers over 40" caught, we estimate a 40" Trout to be in excess of 35 pounds! The availability of great Trout fishing makes this fishery one of the few that has outstanding representation from all three of northern Manitoba's most sought after game fish.


Accommodations

Laurie River Lodge guests reside in one of 6 contemporary lakeside cabins. Each of these well appointed, completely modern cabins is designed to keep our fishermen warm, dry and comfortable during their non-fishing times. Private bedrooms with cozy beds, 3 piece bathrooms, warm carpeted floors, 110 volt electricity and large decks with a view of McGavock Lake are all part of what makes Laurie River Lodge one of the most popular fly-in fishing destinations in northern Manitoba. Our skilled cleaning staff provides daily maid service ensuring that you return to a clean comfortable well stocked cabin at the end of each day of fabulous fishing.


Guides

We employee 16 professional Guides. These competent individuals spend their summers perfecting the art of catching trophy Northern Pike, Walleye and Lake Trout. They all have an intimate knowledge of the local area and all excellent boat handlers, cooks and story tellers. A day in the boat with one of these guys can help even experienced anglers hone their angling skills to a fine edge. Those who don't fish all the time will appreciate the easy going, yet informative, way that a true professional can easily help you improve your fishing skills.

American Plan Food

Hearty breakfasts and 5 course gourmet dinners are served daily in the main lodge and our guides cook your fresh caught Walleye over an open fire for lunch on the lake everyday at noon.

At Laurie River Lodge we realize that there is more to a fishing trip to northern Canada than just fishing. We employee a professional chef who spends his days preparing the finest in gourmet quality meals.

From the Prime Standing Rib Roast with twice baked potatoes to the Cajun style Cornish Game Hens our menu reflects the tastes of a refined palate but provides portions big enough to satisfy even the hungriest fisherman.
