Plaisted Camps is not just a fishing camp; it’s a return to the basics, an adventure into the heart of nature, and a commitment to conservation. From the moment Ralph and his family built the first log cabin, dubbed the “Russell Lake Hilton,” the mission was clear: to share this slice of paradise with others without compromising the integrity of the wilderness that makes it so special.
At Plaisted Camps, our mission is simple yet profound: to provide an authentic wilderness experience that ignites a love for nature, adventure, and fishing. We believe in the power of the great outdoors to refresh the spirit, challenge the body, and inspire the mind. Whether you’re casting a line into the crystal-clear waters of Russell Lake or simply soaking in the tranquillity of the surrounding wilderness, our goal is to make every moment at Plaisted Camps unforgettable.
We are stewards of the land and water that have given us so much. Sustainability is not just a practice; it’s a principle that guides everything we do. From eco-friendly cabins to selective harvest fishing practices, we are committed to preserving the natural beauty and biodiversity of our surroundings for generations to come.
Plaisted Camps offers more than just a fishing trip; it offers a journey. With over 50 years of history, our camp has welcomed adventurers, families, and anglers from around the world to experience the thrill of the catch and the peace of the wilderness. Our guests aren’t just visitors; they become part of the Plaisted Camps family, returning year after year to continue the tradition.
We invite you to become a part of our story. Whether you’re seeking the thrill of landing a Trophy Northern Pike, exploring the pristine waters of Russell Lake, or simply escaping the noise of everyday life, Plaisted Camps is your gateway to the wilderness. Come and experience the adventure that awaits in the heart of northern Saskatchewan.
Plaisted Camp’s slogan, “A fishing tale you won’t have to make up” is totally appropriate. Our group has been fishing with Dan, Morgan and their staff for at least 10 years and plan on returning every year. Great people, great food, great fishing; what more could a fisherman want. I would and have recommended Plaisted Camps to all my fishing friends.
