Saskatchewan's vast wilderness and nearly 100,000 lakes make it the perfect place for a memorable outdoor excursion. It is well-know for its abundant northern pike, fabulous bird hunting and trophy-sized deer-not to mention its excellent walleye, lake trout, Arctic Grayling fishing and big game hunting for black bear and moose. Whatever your interests, Saskatchewan is a great place to hunt, fish and relax.
Saskatchewan offers some of the most unique fishing environments in Canada, widely diverse from north to south. The rolling plains and parklands of the south contrast sharply with the rugged Precambrian wilderness of Saskatchewan's north. However, the fishing experiences are just as challenging and rewarding.
For some anglers, a host of amenities and additional activities and easy access directs them to the southern lakes and rivers. Others are drawn to a more remote and rugged setting and head further north. And then there are those who really want to get away from it all-flying into remote fishing camps in Saskatchewan's spectacular north.
Pike, walleye and perch are the most common species in southern Saskatchewan. Largemouth bass are found in Boundary Reservoir in southeast Saskatchewan and there are rock bass in the lower Qu'Appelle lakes, but the real action is found in the lakes of the northern region of the province.
Saskatchewan is home to nearly 100,000 lakes, most of which are found in the north and are connected by river systems that provide the only highways in most of the area. These lakes have abundant monster northern pike and lake trout, golden walleye and even the magnificent Arctic grayling, which are typically found in the fast-flowing river waters of this region.
Saskatchewan is also blessed with some of North America's most abundant populations of wildlife. With large populations of geese, Hungarian partridge, ruffed grouse and the largest duck population on the continent - one out of every four ducks harvested in North America is produced in Saskatchewan! - the potential for bird hunting in the province is unbeatable. Saskatchewan is also a major flyway for migratory birds, providing exceptional waterfowl hunting each autumn. The sight of its wide-open skies full of endless soaring birds ensures a memorable hunting experience.
The largest trophy white-tailed deer in the world live in our province, thanks to the minerals in fertile soil, abundant habitat, superior genetics and the northern climate. Moose and black bear also roam the forests in large numbers. Saskatchewan could be considered the mecca of white-tailed deer hunting, and is in the dreams of every serious big game hunter. Many non-resident hunters take bucks far larger than they have ever seen at home.
Saskatchewan's licensed outfitters offer everything from world-class lodges packed with amenities and extras, to rustic cabins and knowledgeable guides. It's the trip of a lifetime, and when you get home you'll be swapping stories about fish that practically jump into your boat.
