I was lucky enough to join a last-minute week-long fishing getaway organized by BFO last September… and I am thrilled to have gone! I fished for 9 days on Whiteclay Lake, near BFO's cabins. Whiteclay Lake is a magnificent riverine lake in the Ogoki River system, and the fishing there was exceptional! The weather was perfect and the gorges were splendid… I caught hundreds of walleye, as well as yellow perch and northern pike.

A big thank you to Jason and Sue! We just returned from an exceptional fishing trip with Boreal Forest Outfitters. The quality of the service and hospitality was even better than the fishing itself. They went out of their way to help us with our vehicle and other issues, so that our trip went off without the slightest hitch. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for an unforgettable fishing experience. Thank you again and best of luck during these difficult times.
