I have stayed there a few times and have hired Tom as a guide once. . Accommodations are nice, not much access to the river at the lodge. If you are looking for a guide Tom is great and can get you...

Another option is to take the mail boat ride up to Agnes and see the river for your self. Talk to the driver and tell him what you are looking for.

When we were in Newfoundland fishing Gros Morne National Park we found the Seaside Restaurant in Trout River. So good we ate there two nights in a row. Best sea food I have ever had.
