You can book by calling (705) 471-3245 or sending a message through our contact page. Tell us the dates you have in mind, your group size, and the kind of trip you want, and we will confirm availability and pricing. We handle fishing charters, boat tours, water taxi runs, ATV rentals, camping gear packages, and contractor services from one point of contact.
Earlier is always better, especially for summer weekends, holiday weekends, and peak fishing seasons. We recommend booking guided fishing trips and boat tours at least two to four weeks in advance during the open-water season. Last-minute bookings are welcome when we have availability. Call (705) 471-3245 to check current openings.
Safety on the water comes first. If conditions are unsafe, we will reschedule your trip or offer a full refund. For client-initiated cancellations, call (705) 471-3245 as early as possible so we can adjust the schedule. Specific deposit and cancellation terms are confirmed at the time of booking.
Yes. Our charter vessel is commercially registered to carry up to 9 passengers, and we regularly run trips for families, friend groups, and corporate outings. For larger groups, longer events, or multi-service packages combining fishing, tours, camping gear, and water taxi, call (705) 471-3245 and we will build the day around your group.
Trips typically depart from our home base on the south shore of Lake Nipissing in Callander, Ontario, with direct water access to the Upper French River system. Our boats are fully trailerable, so we can also operate and relocate anywhere in Ontario based on client needs. Call (705) 471-3245 to confirm the meeting location for your trip.
We primarily target walleye, with consistent opportunities for perch and smallmouth bass, and the chance at landing a big northern pike or even a musky. Lake Nipissing is one of Ontario's most productive walleye fisheries.
Yes. Every angler on a guided fishing trip needs a valid Ontario fishing licence. Bring it with you on the day of your trip. Children 16 and under fish free on every guided trip with us.
Every guided trip includes a fully guided fishing experience, rods, reels, tackle, and bait, safety equipment and lifejackets, fish cleaning and packaging for you to take home, and local knowledge of current conditions and productive areas. The base price covers 4 adults, the boat carries up to 9 passengers total, and a French River add-on is available to extend the trip.
Our primary vessel is a 26-foot aluminum landing craft powered by a 250 HP outboard, designed for stability, safety, and access to remote locations. It is equipped with advanced sonar, GPS mapping, and communication systems, built for guided fishing trips, water taxi operations, and remote transport across Lake Nipissing and the French River.
Yes. Our boat tours are suitable for all ages, from young kids to grandparents. Children are welcome on every tour, and our wheelchair-accessible boat lets families with mixed mobility levels enjoy the trip together. Call (705) 471-3245 to plan a family-friendly itinerary.
The Basic Camp Package includes a tent with ground liner, pegs, and setup kit, sleeping bags with liners, sleeping pads and pillows, a cooking stove with propane, flashlights or headlamps, and a first aid kit. The Comfort Camp Package adds cookware and a full mess kit, camping chairs, and a cooler. We also help you choose the right campsite across the Nipissing region, including provincial parks, private and municipal campgrounds, backcountry and crown land, or boat-access-only sites.
Yes. We offer free local delivery within our service area. Extended delivery, full campsite setup, and boat or water taxi delivery to remote locations are all available upon request. Call (705) 471-3245 to confirm your delivery location.
Yes. We rent boats, ATVs and snowmobiles, and paddle craft including kayaks and canoes. Self-serve full-day ATV rentals are $350, weekly rentals are $1,500, and one tank of fuel is included. We also offer outdoor gear rentals such as fishing gear, generators, Starlink, and BBQs, so you can build a custom kit instead of taking a full package.
ATV rentals require a $5,000 security deposit, single rider only with no passengers, and riders must be 18 or older with a valid Ontario driver's licence. Guided ATV tours require a $200 booking deposit per rider that is refunded at the end of the ride day, plus a $200 damage deposit per rider held until equipment is returned in good condition. Specific deposit terms for boats, paddle craft, and gear rentals are confirmed at booking. Call (705) 471-3245 for details.
Our water taxi moves people, equipment, and supplies to locations that cannot be reached by road. Common uses include drop-offs and pickups at remote campsites, gear and camping setup deliveries, transport for cottagers and lodge guests, scheduled supply runs, and emergency evacuation support. If you own a cottage on an island, manage a lodge on a remote bay, or need to move heavy materials, the water taxi is how you get it there safely.
The water taxi and marine logistics service starts at $125 per hour, plus a fuel surcharge based on distance and conditions. Final pricing depends on distance, time, cargo, and conditions. Call (705) 471-3245 for a quote tailored to your trip.
Yes. Our landing craft is built for heavy, oversized, and critical loads. We move lumber and building materials, appliances including fridges and stoves, propane and essential supplies, ATVs, side-by-sides, and other wheeled equipment, full camping setups, and bulk gear. We also coordinate with contractors working on landlocked cottages and remote job sites.
Landlocked cottages are our specialty. A landing craft can deliver to an open shoreline where a dock does not exist and a standard boat cannot handle the weight. We provide passenger water taxi service, scheduled weekly supply deliveries, on-demand and emergency runs, and contractor support so owners and trades can reach the property without hauling everything themselves. No road, no dock, no problem.
Yes. Our wheelchair-accessible boat ensures that everyone, regardless of mobility, has the opportunity to experience the water, the scenery, and the fishing that make Lake Nipissing and the French River special. Let us know at the time of booking and we will set up the boat and the route for your needs.
Lake Nipissing and the Upper French River are designated Class 2 inland waterways, which require higher levels of certification and operational compliance. We operate in full compliance with Transport Canada under the Canada Shipping Act, 2001. Our charter vessel is commercially registered, fully licensed and insured, and operated by a certified Small Vessel Operator (SVOP). The boat is equipped with advanced marine navigation, GPS, and onboard safety systems.
On guided fishing trips we provide rods, reels, tackle, bait, safety equipment, lifejackets, fish cleaning and packaging. You bring a valid Ontario fishing licence, weather-appropriate clothing, sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, food and drinks (unless you add the shore lunch), and a camera or phone. No alcohol is permitted on board. For ATV rentals, riders are required to wear safety equipment at all times. If you do not have your own helmet or protective gear, let us know at booking and we will arrange appropriate equipment.
Yes. Children are welcome on guided fishing trips and scenic boat tours, and kids 16 and under fish free on every guided trip. ATV rentals and tours are restricted to riders 18 or older with a valid Ontario driver's licence. For family bookings, we tailor the itinerary to the youngest guests on board so everyone has a great day.
