Hey Soulfly, the hidden islands are primarily here ((50.6604493, -115.1339443). You can see them in google maps, although they were still above water in early June.

I'm Fishing, would you care to tell a guy about these hidden islands? Was curious on taking my boat up there sometime soon. Thanks

Had my 17 ft lund with a 115 on it but I'm still careful going around the sunken islands!

by Paddler on Nov. 17, 2018
Was Kayaking there Nov 10. Lake was totally ice free except in a few sheltered areas there was some ice. Hoping to get out there to paddle one more time next weekend if it's still liquid





by Burgz on Nov. 8, 2018
Anyone know when we can expect ice at either of the k lakes or spray? Getting way too pumped for hard water lol. Think it will be good by end of November?





by Copsarehere on Sep. 5, 2018
Went out September 2 for a few hours trolled around caught a 5lb bull trout. Nice lake can't wait to go back.





by ab trouter on Jun. 5, 2018
Went out on June 3rd for the whole day. Too windy to put the boat out so fished from shore. Not even a bite all day.





by T1dan on Apr. 12, 2018
Is there any open water by the dam or spill ready to be fished ???





by alc1966 on Jan. 22, 2018
Parked at Peninsula picnic area off the Smith Dorien trail and walked on, good ice but lots of flood water. Tough hiking and got very wet. Fishing was slow, but can't beat the scenery.

Does anyone know a good spot to drive onto Lower Kananaskis Lake for ice fishing, such as from a boat launch?

by walleye finder on May. 29, 2017
what is the best lure for this lake





by Kevhal on May. 29, 2017
Lake is wide open. Boat launch is accessible and the fish are hungry!





by onting on May. 16, 2017
The lake is still half frozen. Good fishing on the spillway.

Was out on my canoe with a Minn Kota, got 2 bullies on dry flies. Calm morning, risers along the west shore south of the narrow. Excellent boat launch at Canyon day use area.





by curt26 on Jul. 13, 2016
Has anyone launched a boat yet, if so how's the water level?





by bogar on Jul. 10, 2016
Looking at making a trip here, wondering where to go, what to use and if gas motors are allowed





by John B on Jun. 7, 2016
I was out in my kayak on Friday 3rd June and had 2 nice 14" cutthroat before lunch. Seen a few big but trout on the south west bank at the mud flat. Water was clear with very little wind

Has anyone been out fishing lately? If so, how is the fishing?





by onting on Apr. 21, 2016
Water is low and fishing is slow. Half of the lake still is still frozen. Maybe in a week or two it will be iced out and the water should be up.





by Fishing King2012 on Apr. 19, 2016
Anyone been out lately? How is fishing and water level?





by BP on Apr. 6, 2016

Great day but no fish. By interlakes.

Went on December 26. Caught 5 fish. 4/5 were approx 28-30 inch. One guy was just small, maybe 12 inches.
by Houston1 on Jan. 1, 2016
Depth is about 40 feet here. I can't find any depth charts for this lake so I thought I would share.
