Inconnu Lodge

Inconnu Lodge sits on McEvoy Lake in Yukon Territory, accessible by charter flight from Whitehorse. Founded in 1975, the lodge runs all-inclusive week-long programs with daily floatplane fly-outs to different remote lakes, maximizing access to untouched fishing grounds. The fishery targets lake trout (including trophy-sized fish in deeper water mid-summer), northern pike, arctic grayling, bull trout, and inconnu across fly, spin, troll, and jig presentations. The season runs June…

The fishing season at Inconnu Lodge kicks off with the thaw, typically around mid-June, offering prime opportunities for fly-fishing and conventional tactics in shallower waters. This early season bite is excellent for anglers targeting active fish in the shallows. As summer progresses into mid-to-late July, the water warms, and the focus shifts to deeper water for larger Lake Trout, while Northern Pike also move to slightly deeper zones, though still accessible with casting or fly presentations. This period is ideal for anglers seeking to extract trophy-sized Lakers from the depths. Towards the end of the season, as the lakes begin to cool, shallow water fishing for Lake Trout becomes viable again as they prepare for their spawning runs. This late-season window offers a chance at aggressive fish before they transition fully into their pre-spawn behavior. The lodge operates through September, providing diverse fishing experiences throughout the summer months.
