    If your not set on fishing Savant, try Gateway North Outfitter. @ http://www.gatewaynorthoutfitters.net. I used to work in Canada as a bush pilot for many years and my family is still up there running fly in out post camps. My brother started Gateway North a couple of years ago and split from the family business. He is a very avid fisherman and has fished the area for over twenty years.

    This post might be to late, but my brother operates a fishing camp north of Emo. He has a number of outposts around that area with lots of trout. He spends all his free time chasing them and offers his expertise guiding if you so desire. Get ahold of Lucas Adams at http://www.gatewaynorthoutfitters.net. Just a note, I was up over the holidays and if you go, be sure and have your deep snow kits on the sleds. Lots of snow and tons of slush. Real hard going and very hard on the sleds. Take plenty of Isopropyl Alcohol for the sleds

    I used to fly the bush in that area around Wabikimi park and over toward Sioux Lookout. Pretty rugged if you are not sure what to expect. My advice is get ahold of the MNR (Ministry of Natural Resources), like the DNR in the states and talk to the biologist for that area. They will let you know the routes and portages to take. Also keep in mind not all Crown (Public) Land is open to camping. In the park I believe it is, but you should check all that out prior to the trip. It would save a fine in the end. Yes the wardens do get out and visit quite often. Some unlucky ones I flew out were fined $500 per fish. They were 8 fish over so do the math. I think the controlling MNR is probably Sioux Lookout or possibly Armstrong. Outfitters in that area are Pipestone Outposts, Rusty Myers, and Northern Wilderness Outposts. Also Gino Puluchi had a camp on Brenan, not sure who has it now. Have any questions, let me know. Good Luck.
