September 1 - 6, 2020

Join us in September 2020, for four days of fishing at Northern Lights Lodge in B.C.'s spectacular Cariboo country. Northern Lights is one of our favourite fly-fishing lodges, partly because of the fishing, and partly because of the atmosphere of the lodge and the hospitality of the people who run it. Long-time owners Skeed and Sharon Borkowski have the know-how to make your experience something you'll always remember. Skeed will keep us entertained and

Sharon and staff will keep us extremely well-fed. Northern Lights Lodge was the headquarters for several episodes of Fly Fusion TV, which Jim co-hosts with Derek Bird including one of the most popular episodes, "Eden."

The lodge can be reached by a four-hour drive from Kamloops, B.C., or flights from
Vancouver to Williams Lake, where guests are met at the airport.

It's an "exotic trip" without the prohibitively high cost of getting there.

When you're at Northern Lights, you never wish you were somewhere else.

Northern Lights was named Fly Fusion Magazine's

"lodge of the year" in 2010

What to expect....
This trip is ideal for people of varying levels of fly-fishing experience. While not suited for someone who has never fly fished, they are great choices for people with some, even if limited, experience.

This trip is based on the return of sockeye salmon to Quesnel Lake's tributaries to spawn, and the rainbow trout that follow them up the streams from the lake to feed on eggs. Bull trout are always around, sometimes in surprising numbers. This is a place where solitude is part of the fly-fishing equation and it's rare to see other anglers on any of these streams at any time of year. A visit to the ghost town of Quesnel Forks can also be arranged for folks interested in the gold-mining history of this part of the Cariboo.
