This is Canada so that means we get five months of ice on our lakes - sometimes six! But what that also means is that you have all kinds of time to go out on the thousands of freshwater lakes in the region and perfect your ice fishing skills. There is a variety of lodges that are fully winterized and have ice fishing packages for you to choose from. There are also lodges that have ice shack rentals (some are even heated!) so you can get out of the cold. 

Catch walleye, trout, perch, crappie and pike through the ice. Some of the largest fish we see are caught during the winter months. Some local fishing guides offer guided day trips so if you're just passing through and looking for some excitement try ice fishing.
