If you arrive in Winnipeg a day or two before your travel date for the lodge, we have made arrangements at hotels near the airport for special rates.
We will pick you up at your hotel on the day you travel to the lodge. You then depart from a seperate terminal away from the International Airport. The 46 passenger aircraft we charter brings you, your gear, and fresh supplies to the lodge. Please see our planes page for more flight information.
The flight is about an hour and a half and the flight attendant serves coffee and muffins during the flight. Once you have arrived at the lodge, we show you to your cabin, give you breakfast assign you your guides. Every two guests get their own guide who will stay with them for the duration of their trip.
In case you were not with us in 2002 or 2003, here are some updates.
We have abandoned our old location and moved everything to within walking distance of our airstrip. The old lodge has been dismantled for scrap and the new lodge features a new bar, dining room, kitchen, tackle shop and office for satellite phone calls and satellite emails. The new site and lodge is a great improvement in terms of convenience and comfort. The boat rides are shorter, and the view is incredible for sunsets and Northern Lights.
We have also upgraded all our guest cabins so that now every 2 person bedroom has it's own private bathroom. We have new carpet and new propane heaters in all the cabins which provide more comfortable heat than the old oil heaters.
The lodge, the cabins and the boats are all new at Bolton Lake, so we'd like to invite all our past customers and everyone else to come see the New Bolton Lake Lodge in 2006!!
Each new day starts with coffee delivered to your room and breakfast is served between 7 and 8 a.m. Your guides fill your cooler with drinks of your choice and take you fishing for Pike, Walleye or Lake Trout. Around noon, your group meets for shorelunch at a designated spot on the lake. The shorelunch spots have firewood that's precut, a picnic table and a fire pit so there is no wasted time setting up your lunch spot and collecting wood for a fire. Your guides fix a shorelunch that they have perfected. They have years of experience and love to make a shorelunch that you will look forward to. Fried fish is the main fare, however our guides have created a number of different baked recipes as well as a cajun style fish and even grilled fish over the open fire. If you have any dietary requirements, please let us know before your trip so that we can have the ingredients at the camp before you arrive.
After your day of fishing, you return to the lodge where our
bar is set with hors d'oevres and cocktails.
Then dinners such as prime rib, steaks, chicken, and other special meals are served with all the trimmings. It is not a buffet, but it is a set menu nightly.
In the evening the boats are free to be taken out and you can choose to have a guide with you. They charge a nominal fee for their overtime.
At the end of your trip, we fly you back the Winnipeg International airport.
Please see our rates page for more information.
Bolton Lake is approximately 12 miles wide and 17 miles tall, to view a map click here. We have Northern Pike, Walleye and Lake Trout that all can be caught in trophy size and in abundance.
Bolton Lake Lodge can accommodate up to 26 guests at one time, which means no more than 13 boats on the lake. We also offer one day fly-outs to nearby lakes for Pike, Walleye and/or Brook Trout fishing.
