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. The majority of lakes, reservoirs, streams and canals in the Prairies region are closed to fishing between April 1 and May 8. In the Parkland region, most lakes are closed form April 1 to the May long weekend. Remember, Alberta has a provincewide ban on barbed hooks and live bait.

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. 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
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.

Chickakoo Lake stocked with rainbow and brook trout, often producing two- to five-pounders. In 2013, the lake was also stocked with nothern whitefish.
Sauer Lake, which lies south of Chickakoo Lake, is stocked with rainbows. 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. Check out the lake page for
Chickakoo Lake on The Angler’s Atlas website. Add your photos and tips while you’re there. See anglersatlas.com/lake/101840.

A decade ago, the Muir Lake Rehabilitation Project transformed the lake by adding aerators to reduce winter kill, restored the shoreline and stocked the lake with rainbow trout.

igeon Lake resembles many other lakes in Alberta with its large area and relatively shallow depth. These conditions provide great habitat for walleye, northern trout, and lake whitefish, with walleye particularly abundant in these waters. Please ensure you are familiar with the provincial fishing regulations before heading out. The lake has seen some changes in the past several years. At present, a tag system is in place for catching walleye.
Try a jighead with a minnow for starters. This may be all you need for a lot of action. Birddog44, an iFish Alberta user, reports “steady walleye just off the drop in 20 feet of water.” Anglers regularly report catching and releasing as many as 60 walleye per outing. In the summer months, bluegreen algae sometimes grows. LAKE ACCESS Latitude: 53.0142 Longtitude: -114.0201

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.”

Less than 10 metres deep, Spring Lake is prone to winter kill. There are aerators in place to offset this problem and ensure delivery of oxygen to the trout. As well, annual stocking with rainbow and brook trout provides a steady supply of fish for anglers.
For rainbow trout, iFish Alberta user Pikster recommends trying “the deep area southwest of the island about 12-14 feet.” A few patterns recommended by the Edmonton Trout Fishing Club: Idaho Nymph, Green Montana Nymph, Leech, Dr. Spratley Pheasant Tail Nymph and Wooly Bugger.
