Fishing near Inuvik, Northwest Territories

Inuvik sits in the Mackenzie Delta of the Inuvialuit Settlement Region, where the Mackenzie River — known locally as the Deh Cho — fans out across the western Arctic before reaching the Beaufort Sea. The delta's channels, lakes, and surrounding tundra waters draw anglers after northern pike, inconnu (coney), and lake char, with the Deh Cho and nearby Campbell Lake among the most-visited spots.
