Where to begin… Two prairie boys who had never fly fished before. Never in our wildest dreams would we have imagined spending four days so unforgettable. We saw fish every day, and it took us a little time on the first day to figure out the basics. But thanks to our exceptional guide, Mark, we quickly made progress with our casting and fly fishing, caught three Atlantic salmon, and hooked five other fish. We even spotted a seal! The only problem is that my dad and I gained a little weight during the trip, because of all the delicious meals Gary prepared for us! And, as good a cook as he is, he's an even better musician! I highly recommend this place. If you're thinking of coming, you won't find a better outfit anywhere else!

What an incredible experience! If you are looking for experienced guides, exceptional meals, and world-class Atlantic salmon fishing, book with Gander River Outfitters. The guides know this river like the back of their hand and are experts not only at finding fish, but also at navigating this extremely challenging river aboard Gander River boats. It's an experience you definitely shouldn't miss. A big thank you to Gary, the chef, who always treated the boys to absolutely delicious meals. A huge thank you as well to all the guides who gave us an unforgettable experience. See you next year!

If you are looking for an exceptional Atlantic salmon fishing experience, I highly recommend Gander River Outfitters. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed like family. The guides were absolutely exceptional: knowledgeable, dedicated, patient, and genuinely committed to offering everyone an unforgettable experience on the river. The fishing itself was unforgettable. I was lucky enough to catch two magnificent Atlantic salmon, and the adrenaline rush of seeing those fish leap out of the water and feeling the power of the fight will stay etched in my memory. It's an experience every angler should live at least once. Outside of the fishing, everything was exceptional. The food was delicious, the lodging comfortable, and every staff member warm and welcoming. You can feel that the whole team at Gander River Outfitters takes pride in their work and sincerely wants their guests to have an unforgettable stay. This wasn't just a fishing trip: it was an experience I will never forget. I will definitely be back, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Gander River Outfitters to anyone looking for an unforgettable Atlantic salmon fishing adventure.
