"The fishing was qualitatively fabulous and quantitatively as well. This was the 12th trip to Canada since ´83 and I have to say the quality of the walleye was better than ever. Thanks again, its truly a pleasure to do business with you."

Headleaf Lake Outpost


Rates  |   Map

Headleaf Lake Outcamp offers float plane access only Headleaf is a long (7 mile/11km), narrow (1 mile/1.6km) lake with depths up to 30 feet (9m), with high rock walls, sloping, rocky shorelines, cabbage filled bays and feeder creeks on the east end. A river on the west end is great for canoeing. On any given day Headleaf will generate the kind of Walleye action that causes you to lose track of how many fish your partner has really caught. If it's big Pike you're fishing for, you will be more than happy to hear that Headleaf Lake is a great pike lake.

Headleaf Outpost has the distinction among our lakes as holding the daily record for most fish caught and released by two anglers.
