Here is the link for Canadian Airventures:

Ontario Fly in Fishing Lodge Canada|Canadian Fly-In Outpost Cabins | Canoeing In Ontario

The owner and pilot, Denis, has a difficult personality at times, but he truly flies the plane, rather than driving it. This makes a HUGE difference in a small plane. He flies a DeHaviland Beaver...that is a sound that will echo in my soul throughout my days....sniff...ahem

Anyway here is the Golden Route Motel, home of Kathy's Kitchen...another reason to go there is that they sell fishing licenses...if you go with Denis, he doesn't.

Golden Route Lodge

That brings up another good point...ask your guide (whether doing the housekeeping bit or flying to an outpost) what works best...they usually know and are generally happy to share...though not quite everything (they get days off to fish, ya know ). They want you to catch lots of fish, have a good time, and spend more money.

If you plan on bringing back fish, be very careful with the type of lake you get and read up on the bag limits as they are odd. We always went to a conservation lake (many of them are going that way now), which basically meant you could keep what you wanted to eat for dinner that night, but no more. If you want to bring them back to the states, they are very rigid on the limits, or so I hear.

I have also heard of an outfitter in that area by the name of John Theriault (said together, it rhymes with Ontario). He is supposedly good, but I have never met him.
