The Gander River fishing season at White Cliff Lodge kicks off in June, with the prime time for Atlantic Salmon running through September. This period offers anglers the chance to experience the robust runs that Newfoundland is famous for, with annual numbers sometimes exceeding 30,000 fish, and even record runs of over 45,000. The lodge emphasizes catch and release for Atlantic Salmon to preserve this tradition for future generations. Following the main salmon season, fall angling continues on a catch and release basis up to October. Beyond the salmon, White Cliff Lodge also offers exceptional opportunities for Eastern Canadian Moose and Newfoundland Black Bear hunting. The moose hunting season is not explicitly detailed with months, but the black bear hunting is available in both spring and fall, often as an add-on to moose hunts. The lodge's guides, with decades of combined experience on the Gander River, ensure guests have a memorable experience, whether they are seasoned anglers or first-time visitors.
