Grizzly Creek Lodge

Date:May 20, 2015 2:18 pm

Located on Toobally Lakes in the southeast Yukon Territory, 90-air-miles north-east of the small town of Watson Lake, Grizzly Creek Lodge has been providing world class wilderness adventures to clients from around the world since 1990.

During June, July and August of each year we host some of the best fishing trips the north has to offer. Our waters are home to incredible populations of Lake trout, northern pike and arctic grayling.  Both ‘upper’ and ‘lower’ Toobally lakes are over 200-feet deep and dotted with large shallow shoals; perfect habitat for big lake trout. Upper and lower Toobally  lakes are separated by 12-miles of the Smith River. The Smith is an incredible fishery on it’s own. Large numbers of arctic grayling, whitefish, northern pike and lake trout can be found in this wilderness waterway.  With a lodge on both lakes we are able to offer clients a wide variety of water to fish without the high costs of fly-outs. For the serious northern pike anglers we have developed trails into some of the small lakes in the area. These lakes are true trophy pike waters, with fish measuring over 45-inches quite common. We believe the variety we have to offer sets us apart. All of the fisheries described above are easily accessible by boat or on foot. This allows us to offer you a different experience each day; at no extra cost. All fishing is catch and release only, no exceptions other than the shore lunches we prepare for you each day.

Lake Trout
 
The cold, clear waters of the Toobally Lakes produce remarkable lake trout fishing, with fish averaging 12 to 15 pounds and frequently topping 25. The true beauty of the system, however, is the range of options it offers: everything from early-season sight-casting to huge rising fish with flies or lures, to trolling a sinking fly line or plugs and plastics to lakers around the many reefs.

 Northern Pike

The Yukon is home to some of the best northern pike fishing on the planet. Both upper and lower Toobally Lakes have a large population of these brutes. Whether you prefer to use fly or spinning gear, hang on ! These fish are large and aggressive!

In addition to the excellent pike fishing the main lakes offer, we have small boats with motors on some of the smaller lakes in the surrounding area. These are accessible by a short hike through the forrest on our established trails. These lakes regularly produce some real monsters that can go close 50-inches.

Arctic Grayling

Imagine water so clear you can see every fish in the pool and watch as they fight to be the first to your fly. This is ​a normal day on the Smith.  A fly or spin-fishers dream, the Smith River is literally teeming with schools of arctic grayling. 

These fish are real fighters too, often breaking
water before they are landed. Twelve miles of the Smith River separates 
upper and lower Toobally Lakes. This makes access easy for our
jet-boats. Whether you prefer to wade or fish from the boat you will
want to spend more than one day experiencing this fishery.
