Would like to be able to cook some of our catch (especially Walleye) so Saskatchewan is attractive. Any suggestions? Would prefer smaller, out of the way lodges as opposed to big commercial operations.
Tobin Lake, SK is within 12 of Calgary (should work out to around 9 to 9.5 hr's from Calgary) I've rented cabins there a few times.

There are privately owned cabins for rent as well as two resorts with cabins. No lake trout that I know of in Tobin but there are some really nice walleye (ie: double digits if you get lucky) and some real big pike. My bro caught a 25+ lb pike on a walleye rig (ie: no metal leader) and we actually put him in the net and recovered the hook before putting him back in the water.
