What GEARY'S SPORTSMAN'S LODGE LTD. does

Geary's Sportsman's Lodge Ltd. is a family-owned Ontario fly-in fishing and hunting resort operating on Little Vermilion Lake, approximately 90 miles north of Red Lake, Ontario. The business is owned and operated by Brett and Judy Geary and has been in continuous operation since 1982. The lodge is the sole operator on Little Vermilion Lake and is accessible only by float plane from Red Lake seaplane base, creating a structurally isolated customer experience. Core offerings include fly-in housekeeping fishing packages (Canadian Light Housekeeping Plan), all-inclusive moose hunts, ice fishing trips during winter months, and three remote outpost camps under the Manitoba Trophy Outposts brand on Hornell, Mantricia, and Warrington Lakes.

The product stack is built around trophy Northern Pike fishing, supported by a strict catch-and-release policy in place since 1982 (100% release of pike over 35.5 inches) that protects long-term fishery productivity. Facilities include log-built guest cabins with running water, flush toilets, showers, and 24-hour generator electricity, plus 16-foot boats equipped with 15 HP 4-stroke Yamaha motors, depth finders, and satellite internet at the main lodge. Guide services are bundled into hunting packages; outpost camps are self-guided. Seasonal ice fishing targets Walleye, Northern Pike, and Perch during winter.

The revenue model is direct-to-consumer, unit-priced per person, with fishing packages ranging from $1,145 to $1,495, moose hunts from $3,995 to $4,500, and additional charges for fly-out moose transport. Reservations require a $500 deposit; all pricing is in CAD with a $2 service charge. Marketing is conducted through the company website (trophypikecanada.com), direct phone/email, an active Facebook page, and a downloadable PDF brochure. Customers are recreational anglers and hunters from Canada and the United States seeking trophy fishing and big game experiences in remote Canadian wilderness.
