There-s a lot of great fishing destinations for the Traveling Angler to explore. Often times the hardest part is choosing the location for a memorable bite. As always, there-s too many spots to check out and not enough time!
On today-s AnglingBuzz Destination segment we-re going to talk about two amazing destinations north of the border up in Canada:
TOBIN LAKE (SK)
Tobin is a drive-to destination for giant pike and walleye. It-s an interesting Canadian lake because it-s actually a reservoir. The -lake- was formed in 1963 when the E. B. Campbell Dam was constructed on the Saskatchewan river.
This system is incredibly fertile and grows very large fish. It-s one of the few lakes in North America that grows thirty pound pike and lots of walleyes into the teens. Yes, I said teens.
Trolling bottom bouncer and spinner harness-s, crankbaits and swimbaits are key presentations used on the big lake throughout the summer months.
Fall sees a dramatic movement of walleyes into the river where a lot of 10+ pounders are caught. There-s a number of full facility resorts around the lake that cater to visiting anglers.
GANGLERS LODGE (MB)
Next up is a fly-in destination: Gangler-s North Seal River Lodge in north central Manitoba. This is a high end operation. The facility is amazing, a 5-star accommodation to be sure. Whether you-re talking the food, the boats, or the guides - everything about it is top-notch.
Gangler-s has exclusive access to 7, 200 square miles of watershed. With fly-outs from the main lodge to countless outpost lakes. There-s more water here containing fish that have never seen a lure than one could possibly imagine.
There-s a lot of different fishing options: Walleye, Lake Trout, Grayling, and if it-s monster Pike that-s tops on your bucket list, then you-re definitely heading to the right place. You won-t recognize your lures at the end of the day. The hardest part with this many species to fish for is packing all the rods and lures you-ll want to take with you-and that-s a good problem to have.
PERRAULT LAKE (ON)
Additionally, at the end of the video above, Brett McComas talks about how favorite fishing trip yet: huge walleyes at Manotak Lodge on Perrault Lake! Date: 2022-05-15
