Overview

Tazin Lake is a deep, clear water lake that sits in the northwest corner of Saskatchewan. With depths over 400 feet, rocky shorelines, a huge forage base and very little pressure, Tazin Lake is teeming with trophy lake trout. It’s also part of an extensive river system and features giant northern pike as well. Our lake has never seen (and never will) a commercial fishing net, allowing us to properly manage the lake with a catch and release policy. This ensures the giants will be around for generations to come. While the fishing is great, it’s not the only part of a trip to Tazin Lake Lodge. Our camp is built to be smaller to ensure less fishing pressure on the lake and more attention for each guest.

Our crown jewel is a large island that divides the lake into four quadrants and allows for fishing everyday no matter what the wind is. You’ll never see huge waves on our lake, just huge fish! Not only do we have trophy-sized fish, but if you want action, we’ve got it! Anglers have set out to break the century mark for trout caught in a day and it’s been accomplished many times. Fly fisherman have spent the entire day battling angry pike and stout trout on the fly rod. Your arms will be sore from a day spent going after numbers. We also feature fly-out lakes that have had little-to-no pressure the last ten years!

Our guides have an extensive knowledge of the lake and will go above and beyond to give you an incredible fishing experience. But they’ll also show you the unique features our lake has to offer. For trophy fish, big numbers and a land full of character, Tazin Lake Lodge is a destination that should be on everyone’s list.

ACCOMMODATIONS

Description

Tazin Lake Lodge is located on an island in the heart of Tazin Lake. We feature a 5-star chef that serves up a hearty breakfast each morning and delicious meal each evening. Our Chef Steve Driver is a professional facilitator who trains chefs through advanced culinary training programs in Saskatoon in the offseason.

Guests can expect comfortable beds, hot showers, flush toilets and 24-hour electricity in their cabins.

After each breakfast, your guide will make a plan for the day. Fishing is with one guide per two guests in each boat. Our guides spend their day making sure you’re in the right position to catch fish. Our guides don’t fish while you do.

Internet, tv and satellite phones are available.

Meals

While our chef is professionally-trained, he’s also a professional trainer! Steve Driver is well-versed in the art of food preparation and makes sure that none of our guests go hungry. Delicious starters such as salads or soups, main courses like steak, chicken and pork and mouth-watering homemade desserts are prepared daily. The smell of fresh bread floating across the camp will signal that it’s time for another feast. Our guides also have years of shore lunch experience and a meal of fresh pike or trout on the banks of Tazin are legendary.
