Important Update: New Ownership & Transition in Progress
Yellowknife Sportfishing Adventures is now under new ownership, with Fish'N the Arctic. We’re currently finalizing our tourism license and insurance, so guided trips are temporarily on hold. We’re also building a brand-new website to better serve you—thank you for your patience during this exciting transition. Stay tuned for updates, upcoming trip announcements, and new Arctic experiences launching soon! Contact us: YKsportfishing@gmail.com or FishNtheArctic@gmail.com
