Ice Fishing Lake Manitoba Narrows » Fishing In Canada http://icefishinglakemanitobanarrows.com Lake Manitoba Narrows Walleye Northern Pike Ice Fishing Mon, 21 May 2012 15:24:22 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Ice Fishing in Canada http://icefishinglakemanitobanarrows.com/1128/ice-fishing-canada/ http://icefishinglakemanitobanarrows.com/1128/ice-fishing-canada/#comments Thu, 08 Mar 2012 03:18:04 +0000 admin http://icefishinglakemanitobanarrows.com/?p=1128 Wintertime in Canada usually means a slow down in fishing related activities.  You might decide to go to one of the few outdoor shows to help you get through cabin fever,  or if you are a fly fisherman/tyer you might decide to replenish your empty fly box, or you can head out for the hardwater season and try your hand at ice fishing.

Unfortunately this winter was very mild here in southern ontario, so much so that we haven’t had any chance of getting out to do any ice fishing on the resident lakes.  In fact to actually have a shot at ice fishing this year you would have to travel north at least three hours to find ice sufficient enough to hold you safely.

When I do try setting up a day on the ice I make sure that the company we go with are a great group of people.  The last thing you want is to be stuck in a hut for 8 hours with someone who complains or whines non-stop.  My fishing buddies are a great group of individuals so I don’t have to worry to much about that.  My wife who sometimes comes out with us during the summer usually heads out for a day on the ice as well.

I usually decide what species I am interested in chasing then I do my research on the lakes, species, outfitters, price, etc…

Next I call my buddies and see who’s interested in heading out, then we decide which day we will go.

None of my group are very serious ice fishermen so we rent a nice heated hut and hope for the best.

I prefer using small minnows as well as Berkley Gulp minnows for our bait.

Here are a few pics from a previous outing.  Our target species was walleye and I ended up being the only one who caught one, even though it was a midget.

Canada has tens of thousands of rivers, ponds, freshwater lakes, saltwater bodies of water and streams. Freshwater and saltwater are both available and guided excursions are well worth the investment for what you’ll learn and the places you can explore. Fishing in Canada is generally divided into two camps – fresh water (lakes, streams, rivers and remote ponds) and salt water. The most famous type in Canada has to be salmon fishing. Many varieties of salmon such as the Coho, Sockeye, Chinook and chum are ready to be caught and enjoyed. You’ll find ample guides across the country specializing in salmon.

Popular saltwater fishing includes shark and tuna plus many other smaller varieties. One of the most challenging fishing in Canada is fly fishing. This is more than hobby fishing, it is a learned sport style of fishing. Catching fish using an artificial lure called a fly.

But if you want a taste for a real Canadian adventure you simply have to try your hand at ice fishing! You can find and hire guides but if you go to an area that has established huts you won’t need a guide. You simply rent a hut (they’re heated with propane heaters) where a hole has already been drilled into the ice, buy your bait and fish to your heart’s content. Lake Simcoe is the most popular and is recognized as Canada’s ice fishing capital.

For tourists who would like to experience the best of Canada I highly recommended that you come along with guides specializing in the type of fishing you’re interested in. If you choose to go on an adventure alone you’ll want to perform a lot of research first, then bring as many emergency supplies as possible just in case you’re out of your element or comfort zone.

Typically, anglers sit on stools on the ice. If they are there for any length of time, they will tow a heated cabin, often with bunks and other amenities, to their favorite fishing spot. They might even sit in their warm portable huts to fish. The ice huts become villages like a trailer park. Ice fishing is popular in Canada, the northern parts of the US, and across much of northern Europe. Sometimes called hard-water fishing, the sport is most popular in Canada.

Canada has plenty of lakes in just about every part of the country. Many of the lakes are deep and the fish are large and aggressive. People come from all over the world to ice fish in Canada. Quebec and Ontario have some of the more accessible lakes. Ontario has more than 200,000 lakes and a greater number of fish species than the rest of the country. The Prairie provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta have over 200,000 lakes and beautiful scenery. British Columbia offers good trout and salmon fishing. Trout is caught across Canada. Walleye fishing is very popular due to their aggressive nature and excellent taste. Muskie and pike also have a spirited nature.

While seasoned fishers in Canada often shun the portable huts, they are becoming increasingly popular, especially among tourists and occasional anglers. These shanties are dragged or carried onto a lake by an all-terrain vehicle (ATV), truck, or snowmobile. They range from a cheap plastic tarpaulin draped over a wooden or metal frame, to a small cabin of heavy, water-tight material with heating, bunk beds, and cooking facilities. Anglers often leave them on the ice for the winter. Many local authorities now have rules such as dates the huts have to be removed by at winter’s end. The more permanent structures that might be used year after year have wheels and can range from little more than bunks and heating, to structures like a mobile home with full size beds, bathroom, stove, and satellite television.

Specialized fishing equipment is needed for ice fishing. An ice saw is needed to cut a hole in the ice. A skimmer will clear new ice as it forms, while a heater can be used for this purpose too. These are essential on the Canadian ice where temperatures can be minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit or lower and a hole can quickly ice over. Anglers use fishing rods with brightly colored lures

o help attract fish, and of course bait is needed too. Tip-ups are often used, where a flag attached to the line tips up when the fish are biting. This means the line can be left unattended for a while. Spear fishing is practiced too, although it is less common than a fishing rod or tip-up. Native Canadians were spear fishing experts. These days, a flasher is often used to locate fish and get depth information. Underwater cameras are used to see the fish and how they react to a lure.

One of the greatest dangers of ice fishing is the risk of the ice breaking up. Minimum ice depth for walking should be four inches, although many anglers will walk on 2.5 inches. A sled such as a snowmobile needs 5-6 inches, while a car needs 7-12 inches and a truck 14-16 inches. In the late winter, ice can become soft and the recommended minimum thicknesses may not be enough. An additional hazard on some of the larger Canadian lakes, especially the Great Lakes, is off-shore winds breaking up the ice, leaving anglers stranded on large floating islands of ice.

Resorts throughout Canada have lodge accommodation and offer ice fishing tours lasting a day, a weekend or a whole week. They can provide the tackle and equipment, licenses, heated huts, and transportation between the lodge and the huts. Take plenty of warm clothing as it can be frightfully cold out there on the ice in winter. A great advantage of ice fishing is that you don’t get seasick.
