Reservoir Fishing

Reservoirs are awesome for their varied recreational opportunities. The bonus?

Most have excellent fishing! See one such lake on page 11.

Oldman River

Much of the tailwaters of the Oldman River flow through the Parkland Prairie zone.

We’ve got some great tips for the river on page 18.

Ice Fishing

Albertan anglers know that ice fishing rules. Most lakes are highly productive all year round! One example is Sylvan Lake, on page 26.

aters of Parkland Prairie Zones 1 and 2 are home to a whole range of exciting angling opportunities distinct from those of the east and north — no shortage of tempting destinations throughout the year.

Open water season is just as fun, and requires a slight change in tactics. Fly fishing is continuing to grow in popularity. Lakes such as Spring Lake just outside of Edmonton and rivers like the Bow and the Parkland Prairie receives the Oldman, are all excellent for fly greatest fishing pressure in Al- fishing and see some of the best berta, sport and commercial, action in the province. due to the proximity of all of the Remember, Alberta has a provmajor cities and the popularity incewide ban on barbed hooks of angling in Alberta. and live bait.

Sylvan Lake and Wabamun Lake both showcase some of the best of the north. Farther south, the lakes are accessible and productive, and are perfect for family outings.

Both the open water season and ice fishing are popular, and Albertans are not afraid of the cold! Albertans are some of Canada’s most avid ice anglers, and with good reason. From Battle to Keho, Sherburne to Wizard, Alberta lakes are prime ice fishing destinations.

Part of this is due to the wide variety of species in Alberta lakes. Lake whitefish, yellow perch and northern pike are customarily the most sought-after sport species, although walleye fishing has grown in popularity through reservoir stocking.

Fish Stocking

Alberta is loaded with these smaller, super-productive lakes. See Hasse Lake on page 13.

Chickakoo Lake 26 Hectares (64 Acres)

C

hickakoo Lake, west of Edmonton, is considered a “pothole” lake. These lakes are ponds that form in natural hollows in the ground.

The lake is small, but do not be deceived by size. Chickakoo is regularly stocked with rainbow and brook trout, often producing two- to fivepounders.

736 metres (2,415 feet)

Chickakoo Lake has also stocked with nothern whitefish. Sauer Lake, which lies south of Chickakoo Lake, is stocked with rainbows.

Chickakoo Lake can be inconsistent, though when the bite is on, anglers can do very well. Boats are the most efficient way to fish here, as shore fishing can be limited.

There is a dock that can be good for fishing if it’s not too busy. In the summer, algae growth can sometimes hinder the bite. In general, small spinners and

June 1970

spoons tend to be good lures for Chickakoo Lake.

Due to the absence of feeder streams, fish populations seldom survive the winter. Early season ice fishing can still be productive, and anglers regularly report good catches through December.

June, 1970

Feet

hestermere Lake is a small reservoir east of Calgary that draws anglers in both summer and winter for northern pike.

Anglers Atlas user gtk67 writes, “most of the pike in this lake are about 24 inches, [but] the odd bigger pike is occasionally caught.”

Members of iFish Alberta echo this enthusiasm. Reports are that ice fishing can be terrific here, and that there is enough action to keep kids entertained all day.

Reports on Alberta’s fishing forums seem to indicate that the south side is a good place to catch pike winter or summer, although it does tend to get busy. While Chestermere Lake does see a lot of fishing pressure, there are consistent reports of fish up to four pounds. It may be worthwhile to scope out some of the other shallower parts of the lake, particularly if the south end is busy.

Open water fishing can be equally productive. Pike tend to be caught more often than perch, though there are perch to be had for patient anglers.

Just under five kms in length, the lake is a popular spot because of its proximity to the city. The annual Chestermere Lake Water Festival, which is scheduled for July 22, 2017, features watersports of various types, as well as a market and kids’ activities. North of the lake, boats have a speed limit of 15 km/h.

LAKE ACCESS

hestermere Lake, located in the city of Chestermere, is a short drive from Calgary. Only about 15 kms east of the city, Chestermere is at the junction of Hwys. 1 and 1A. There is a community boat launch on the eastern shore of the lake.

Anglers can access another boat launch at John Peake Memorial Park on the lake’s west side.

cenic Jackfish Lake is a structurally interesting lake with many bays, shoals and islands that enhance its productivity. As the name suggests, this is a good spot for northern pike.

If the big ones aren’t biting, there is always perch and burbot to go after. The walleye fishery, unfortunately, remains closed but the lake still has some larger walleye.

Many iFish Alberta users report great fishing right from the dock. As mikkdundee writes, “fished [in] the morning from about 7am until 12pm and caught 35 walleye from the dock. Insane fishing!”

Ice fishing is also popular in winter, and Jack Fish Lake’s close proximity to Edmonton makes it a popular spot for a an easy day trip. As a result, the lake gets quite busy during the summer months.

Jackfish Lake has become a catch-and-release lake only.

This continues as of 2017.

As well, the Jackfish Lake Management Association is undertaking water quality studies in order to assess the feasibility of diverting water from the Saskatchewan This River. would raise the water levels in Jackfish Lake, and it is hoped that fish habitat and water quality would improve.

any of Alberta’s best fishing lakes are man-made reservoirs. Sherburne Reservoir, also known as Grassy Lake, is no exception.

Walleye, pike, perch, burbot and whitefish are all present in Sherburne Reservoir.

Pike fishing ranks as excellent, and walleye can reach a respectable size. While pike tend to prefer the shallower, weedier areas, perch can often be found in deeper water.

Trolling or fishing from the dam are the most common methods. Spinner rigs with Spin N Glos work well.

Perch feed voraciously in winter. Just off the boat launch is a good spot. Bring plenty of bait. iFish Alberta user Papa suggests, “go in the inlet for pike.” The canal inlet is on the south shore about near the west end of the reservoir.

herburne reservoir is east of Lethbridge, approximately 6.5 km south and 3 km west of the town of Grassy Lake.

The reservoir is approximately 9 km long and runs from east to west. Follow Hwy. 3 east for about 80 km to secondary Hwy. 877 on the right side of the highway. Turn here and continue south for about five kilometres to the east end of the reservoir.

The only concrete boat launch is located on the north shore about a kilometre west of the dam.

Boaters also launch on the south shore at the canal inlet as well as the southeast corner of the dam.

Random camping around the boat launch is permitted. There are no designated sites, toilets, picnic tables or camp kitchens. There is no camping fee, either, but the land is privately owned and visitors are expected to treat it with respect.

nly 50 km from Edmonton, serpentine Wizard Lake can be fished year-round for northern pike and yellow perch. Wizard is supposed to have walleye, but there are no reported catches.

Burbot are also caught. These deep-water lurkers will take many different offerings, and, like pike, are considered opportunistic feeders.

Ice fishing for pike is especially popular, but watch for springs that can thin the ice.

website

While the fish are mostly on the small side, the lake is surprisingly productive overall. Spring fishing is reported to be good for small and medium pike up to 5 lbs.

The lake is open from May 15 to March 31st of each year.

The narrows are often more productive than wider stretches. Just past the boat launch, at a depth of 10-15 feet, is another hot spot.

November 1966

If you are casting from shore, try fishing in the evening at dusk near the campground. Try a Five of Diamonds.

Until the late 1960s, the common name for the lake was Conjuring Lake. First Nations’ legends suggest strange noises in the lake came from “conjuring creatures.” The creek draining the lake is still called Conjuring Creek.
