Mark Melnyk from The New Fly Fisher returns to the podcast to explore one of North America's most overlooked fly fishing destinations—northern Saskatchewan. From giant northern pike and shallow-water lake trout to Arctic grayling and floatplane adventures, Mark shares why Canada's Prairie Provinces deserve a place on every fly angler's travel list. Drawing from more than two decades of filming remote fisheries, he offers a firsthand look at what makes Scott Lake Lodge and the surrounding wilderness so unique. The conversation covers planning a fly-in fishing trip, choosing the right gear for northern pike, targeting lake trout on the fly, and the unforgettable experience of landing on a remote lake by floatplane. Along the way, Mark shares stories from filming The New Fly Fisher, explains why Saskatchewan remains one of Canada's best-kept fishing secrets, and highlights the people and places that keep drawing him back.
