| About Me |
The lodge is owned and run by Patsy Collins who is one of the most experienced fishing camp operators in Ontario's north. Patsy is an avid fisherman with a life time of knowledge about where and when to catch the walleye and northern pike in Heathcote Lake.
Flindt Landing Camp was started in 1963 by David Gish, a lumberman and self taught naturalist from Indiana. David's daughter Patsy has spent just about every summer of her life at the camp and learned the operations side of running a fishing lodge from her father.
Today Patsy continues the traditions of conservation that has protected her fishery since 1963. Flindt Landing camp is situated on the rail line in the middle of Wabakimi Provincial Park, on Heathcote Lake. The lake is 17 miles long and only about one half a mile wide. Flindt Landing Camp is the only fishing camp on the lake and the only camp within seventeen miles in one direction and about ten miles in the other. One must fly-in, train-in or canoe in to get to Flindt Landing Camp. The natural beauty and spendor of the area caused the Province to create a wildernes park to protect it. Wabakimi Provincial Park is the second largest wilderness park in Ontario at about 3,444 square miles of protected wilderness.
