First time using the Nester Falls Fly In Outposts.
The experience with them was outstanding.
They are very well run.
We were the first ones in to there furthest outpost camp this season - Malaher
It was clean and ready to go.
The boats and motors were awesome.
The fishing was great.
The opportunities to explore and fish many other lakes was really fun.
The solar power is a big plus. Hot water, Freezer, charging depth finders, etc.
Highly recommend these people.
We will be back

Highly recommend. Service was outstanding. Dave and Michelle are kind and attentive. Their pilots do it all and do it well with a great attitude. We have been to 6 fly in outpost groups and Nestor is the best we have experienced. Went to Malaher Lake. Cabin is a bit aged but upgraded well. Caught 275 walleyes and 40 northerns over 4 days. Two 40 inch northerns and a 27 inch walleye. That is what is so interesting about this lake is the variety and the beauty. We most enjoyed taking the short portage to Lake Moar. Stunningly beautiful boat ride and lots of fish. No problem with the requirement to use artificial baits for walleyes. I may never go back to live bait.

I went to lake Herod with my family, it was awesome and there was cliff jumping, and it was just a blast. I went for 7 days and was the best time of my life. I totally recommend if you love the outdoors and fishing!! i would go again anytime.

Quality in everything they do. I have been going with Dave and Michelle for 20 years and start getting excited for the next trip on the way home from the last trip. The fishing at Malaher is second to none. Big Walleye and huge Northern Pike are an every day experience. There's a lot of wildlife to see too. The cabin feels like home and has everything you could need for a great stay in the wilderness. You're the only cabin on the lake and if that's not enough you can leave Malaher through a narrow channel and go into the river system and fish even more unspoiled water. If you want to rough it in a spoiled kind of way, Nestor Falls Fly In is the outfit for you.

Now that the Canadian Border is open we hope to see you all soon. Who knew when we said good bye two years ago it was going to be for so long. Be safe my friend.

We have been a repeat visitor to NFFO for 10+ years; fishing in Canada for 20+ years. Cabins, boats, fishing are all top notch. What stands out are Dave's, Michelle's, and Jon's attention to detail; the staff will go the extra mile to ensure a fantastic experience. A great example: Last year we blew several fuses (which was our fault) resulting in intermittent loss of power in the cabin. When informed, NFFO flew in extra fuses to correct the issue, without even being asked to do so! We have been spoiled by their commitment to customer satisfaction and eagerly look forward to our "escape to the wilderness" every year. M. Wesley, Barrington IL

Our group has made an annual trip with Nestor Falls since ?1993? Anyway, In that time, those of us that still have hair have noticed it's a bit whiter!
Honestly, it is not possible to recommend Dave, Michelle and Jon more! Every year they upgrade the cabins in ways we couldn't imagine 30 years ago. I'll not tell you about our group's favorite because we're old and selfish and disinclined to share such information. But be advised that whichever lake you choose, you will not be anything less than impressed with the accommodations!
With regards to the fishing, which is the whole point of the trip, I'd recommend live bait. That is unless you are a Bass Master and can seduce with a jig and twister. I'm not that good.
If a Canada fishing trip is on your bucket list, THIS IS THE PLACE!

Nestor Falls Fly-In Outposts provide pristine and remote fishing in Ontario. Dave, Michelle, Jon and team give the white glove treatment and provide a great escape for all levels of fishermen. There is nothing like the feeling of being up north in a remote setting catching the best tasting and hardest fighting fish in North America!

We had a great time on our trip up in your neck of the woods a few weeks ago. I enjoyed seeing you all again as we shared stories and small talk in the office over homemade deer sausage and cheese!
We explored some new areas of Lount Lake that we had not visited before and found some new areas to fish on our next trip up to see you, Dave, and the rest of your fantastic crew. Having our previous trips being in late May to mid-June we got accustomed to the typical springtime fishing pattern where to fish are aggressive and found in typical springtime locations and structure. Having our trip in early August this year we found that we had to alter our approach somewhat. We found that the smallmouth and walleye were a little deeper in 10'-15' feet of water. Our best results for them came from fishing main lake points, secondary points and islands. We still had luck with our springtime lures (X-Raps, topwater, Pop-R's, Zara Spooks, etc.) fishing out from the smaller boulder lined banks, but quickly realized we needed to get deeper to get to the fish we were seeing on the fish finder in that 10'-15' foot of water. Deeper diving square bill crankbaits in various color patterns provided results on these fish. We also found that wacky rigging a 4"-5" Gulp worm on a jighead for those suspended fish worked well. Many walleye and smallmouth found this combination irresistible and provided us with many evening walleye dinners. Overall we found that we were running into larger northerns this year. We found that the bigger brutes were in medium to large bays and about 15'-20' out from the weed/grass line in about 10' feet of water. We boated and released a handful of 33"-38" fish and unfortunately lost a couple of 40"+ ones at the boat because we did not have nets adequate to handle that size of fish. We'll be prepared for that on our next trip when we come up to see you!

My group of 8 went with NFO in late August. We stayed on Malette Lake. Great facilities with great comfort for our group. All you need, just bring your fishing gear and food. We do wish the weather was more cooperative. Rained and very windy during our stay. That is the chance you take going in late August.

What a great place to visit! The staff at NFO, are so friendly and nice. They treat you like family. My husband and I flew to Lount Lake for a week. This was my first trip and his third. Our pilot, Kyle was awesome. Great personality and very helpful. This was also my first flight on a float plane. The scenery at this place is unbelievable! Not enough words to describe it! Calm, serene, peaceful and totally stress free! Truly God's country! Highly recommended! Everyone should experience this place at least once! Miles and miles of tranquility! A week of memories I will never forget. Love the sound of the loons.
