Where to Fish in the Yukon

Welcome to fishing in the Yukon. If you’re a longtime resident, your personal relationship with nature is one reason why the Yukon has the highest rate of resident anglers in Canada. If you’re a first time visitor or a new resident, you’re about to enjoy fishing unlike anything you’ve experienced before.


Our network of adventure roads and campgrounds will help you enjoy good fishing and pristine wilderness near the comfort and safety of your vehicle. Our fishing regulations are simple and our certified guides are ready to share their local knowledge and passion for this land.


To get the most out of your fishing experience, you need to know one more thing about the Yukon. We have a novel approach to live release fishing
that grew out of a meeting of cultures, and we are proud to share it with you. We are leaders in blending the best southern conservation methods with the best First Nation traditions, creating a unique philosophy of nature.

So go ahead and grab your fishing pole, and join us in the nature and culture of Yukon fishing.
