Sorry no small mouth bass in Island lake (Athabasca)! However there is a Island lake by (Smoky lake) that has reported small mouth bass in years past I believe it was stocked back in 1980s

Never fished this lake and heard there maybe smallmouth bass in it. Does anyone know or have catch any in this lake?

The high pressure of fishing, poachers and hutterite netting on this lake has now made pike catch and release. A once flourishing perch population dwindled, hard to find any. No etiquette in summer from boaters. Thank you internet for ruining good fishing spots since 1997.

Lake is very slow. Only caught a couple all weekend and very small fish. Not worth the time.





by Rocket37 on Mar. 5, 2017
Wish I could help Fishmits, been out a few times and had the same results 2 small perch and a few pike in the 3 visits this year.real slow this year. Good luck if you head back.

Tried for two days to find the perch..or even some decent pike action.where the heck are they hiding in the winter?





by dfisherguy on Feb. 22, 2017
Can you drive on at the campground?
by Newfisher on Feb. 19, 2017
About 36 inches of ice, very little snow coverage With the warm weather, be mindful of changing conditions, there were quite a few trucks out that didn't seem to have any issues.

by Lester D on Dec. 3, 2015
I have fished Island off and on for the past 25 years. I haven't even seen a whitefish, through the ice nor accidentally caught. If they are there, they certainly weren't in the areas I was fishing.





by Peter Morzynski on Nov. 29, 2015
Hi everyone, is that lake produce any whitefish during the winter any info wil be greatly appreciate.
