Aikens Lake sits on the edge of Atikaki Provincial Park, offering anglers access to one of Canada’s deepest lakes and a remote wilderness fishing experience just two hours from Winnipeg.
This fly-in fishing experience combines big-water fishing with small-lodge hospitality. Each day, you’ll head out with expert guides to target trophy walleye, pike, and lake trout across the lake’s varied waters. Enjoy freshly cooked shore lunches, handcrafted cabins with modern comforts, and the option to fish independently in the evening if the bite is still hot. With all gear, bait, and licensing included — and a setting within a UNESCO World Heritage Site — the Aikens experience is designed for anglers who want both comfort and quality on the water.
