Arctic Grayling Abound
at Frontier Fishing Lodge

You’re in for a guaranteed good time when you go fishing in Canada for this creature – unquestionably one of the world's most beautiful freshwater fish. Our anglers regularly catch two to four pounders all season! Now that’s Canadian fishing!

Plus, they make it fairly easy on you, as they have the tendency to eat almost anything. In fact, of all the fish out there to be caught, it seems that many different fishing techniques can work with the arctic grayling. In addition, arctic grayling will rise to a dry fly at will.

Fishing in Canada for Arctic Grayling

Canada fishing lodgeSo there you are, sitting in your boat, pole in hand, stillness on the water. The smell of a cabin chimney off in the distance. Not so long ago this same area was populated by nomadic hunter-gatherers and Native Americans.

Thousands of evergreens, cold tundra, and sounds of nature surround you. You’re in the hunt for some arctic grayling. This is the type of grayling fishing experience that you can expect when you visit us.

Canada fishing lodgeIn terms of recommendations, we would go with an 8.5' or 9' 5-wt. or 6-wt. rod with both floating and moderate sink-tip lines, with 4x-6x knot-less tapered leaders/tippet. With floating lines you may wish to use a fly line one size up from the rod weight – a 5-wt. rod uses a 6-wt. line with these techniques.
