Russell Lake · Northern Saskatchewan
Trophy northern pike, lake trout, walleye and arctic grayling, fished from a remote camp reached only by float plane. Authentic log cabins, guided days on the water, and the same hospitality that has brought anglers back for over 50 years.
Since 1970
Plaisted Camps began with Ralph Plaisted's dream of finding a place far away from the busy city. Fifty years on, it is still a remote Canadian wilderness fishing destination on Russell Lake, known for pristine waters, authentic log cabins, and unforgettable days on the lake.
