7 Day Adventure

Eagle River Trout Lodge offers world class fly fishing adventures on the world famous Eagle River, Labrador.

We fish mainly all rivers thus all moving water fishing makes ERTL a very unique destination for the prized Trophy Brook Trout. The rivers are large enough that ERTL experienced guides travel the river system in our large 26 foot canoe known as the Gander River Boat.

ERTL practices an hook and release fishery only. No brook trout are retained other than an occasional injured fish that well be served along with northern pike for a shore-lunch during a full day adventure.

Barbless hooks are to be used at all times and only fly fishing in the rivers is permitted. There are times in the lakes especially in shallow areas that hold large pike we do use light spin tackle with single barb less hooks. Here at ERTL our brook trout average about 4 pounds with brook trout 6-8 pounds very common and we have landed them in recent years weighing a whopping 11 pounds.

Northern Pike on this watershed also can grow quite large and very eager to take the fly. Specimens of near 30 pounds have been landed with 15-20 pounds very common.

The best routing to Goose Bay from most points in the USA is via Air Canada and its partner airlines in the United States. Although various routes exist, we have found that connecting to the Canadian carriers in Boston, Newark, Toronto, Montreal or Halifax will usually offer the best routing to Labrador.

Alternate routing into Halifax, then through St. John’s, NL, to Goose Bay via local carriers and Provincial Airlines is also worth investigation.

Airline schedules usually change in the spring to support additional flights into Goose Bay, offering much better connections and less travel time for our fishing guests. Contact us directly if you desire more assistance which we can offer from our location in Labrador.

You will require an overnight stay at a local hotel in Goose Bay. Clients are responsible for their own transportation to and from the airport.

Pre-arranged float equipped aircraft will transport you and your party to the lodge following morning at 9 AM. Your return flight from the lodge will arrive in Goose Bay at 10:30 AM.

Floatplane operation in and out of Goose Bay is subject to visual flight rules. We are not responsible for accommodations in Goose Bay made necessary by delays due to poor flying weather. Your rate will not be reduced if for any reason your arrival in Goose Bay is delayed or if poor weather prevents you from going to camp. By the same token, you will not be charged for extra time spent at the lodge due to inclement weather.

Note: We reserve the right to ship cargo and staff on aircraft travelling between the lodge and Goose Bay on a “space available” basis.
