Bush pilots don’t just fly guests into the wilderness — they also keep remote camps running. In this episode, the Air Ivanhoe crew heads out on a multi-stop mission, starting with building a brand-new floating dock at an isolated outpost. After securing the plane and finishing the construction, the reward comes quickly: steady walleye action!!!
From there the adventure continues as they lift off and fly to another cabin tucked between towering cliffs and pristine northern lakes. The clear water proves irresistible, leading to an afternoon of cliff jumping and exploring untouched shorelines before the rods come out again for more walleye, pike, and bass. The work doesn’t end there — the pilots haul in a propane fridge, tackle electrical upgrades, and knock off carpentry tasks that only a bush crew can handle this far from civilisation. Midway through the trip, they discover they’ve forgotten the bait, but the wilderness offers up what they need, and the fishing stays hot. A perfect blend of backcountry labour and northern adventure, this episode captures the grit, fun, and wild freedom behind the scenes of Air Ivanhoe’s remote operations.
