Fishing on Confederation Lake
With large populations of trophy pike and lake trout, make sure you bring tackle heavy enough to withstand a good fight. The trout are deep most of the time so bring tackle than can get you down to the depths where they feed. Spoons, large jigs and trolling with downriggers all work well. Bring big spoons, spinnerbaits and even topwater baits for casting at the huge pike that inhabit the back bays and rocky points.
Fishing Lodges & Outposts
Confederation Lake is serviced by a number of private tourist camp owners offering accommodation that range from outposts to full American Plan and guided trips. Figuring out where to stay won't be difficult.
