Est. on the trapline
35+ Years
Paul has lived and worked on the same registered trapline at Winefred Lake for more than 35 years. He didn't come here to build a business. He came here because this is where he belongs.
Winefred Lake Outfitters grew out of that life. The cabins, the boats, the fire — it's all an extension of how Paul actually lives. When you come here, you're not a guest at a resort. You're a visitor to something real.
The lake is world-class. The fishing is genuine. The man who built this place is one of a kind. Come and see for yourself.
