Has anyone been out to Spray Lakes Reservoir recently to see if there is any ice on the lake yet??? Thank you for your reply.

Great day yesterday. Caught our limits in 40 minutes. all size approx 18 inches, the biggest was 23 inches.

Great day.Caught 6 Lakers between the two of us in about 2 hours.

Had the zodiac out on Spray today with the family. Didn't catch anything. It was stupid windy and very hard to enjoy! Seems to me that the reservoir is extremely low. Will try again on another weekend and hope it's not windy.

Hi ipaddle,ice is off at spray.Water levels are still a little low for a large boat.

It's end of May. Is the Ice off of Spray Lake to paddle and fish? Thanks

Hi Blackhawks,smelt is allowed as bait and is your best bet.Make sure they are not minnows as that will result in a fine.

Hello lads and lassies! I want to take the kids out there in mid-June to camp and fish out of a canoe. Any pros out there with advice on where to fish and what bait to use? I understand that live fish bait is not allowed. Anyone have any luck with worms? Any advice would be very much appreciated!

Any update about ice thickness

May 6, 2021. Ice thickness 20" - 24" with a few inches of snow on the surface at the middle of lake. Water level seems to be lower than last time I was there. Beautiful day with a light breeze, no jacket required. Fish biting and lost a couple, but managed to land '3' lake trout. Did not see anyone else on the lake today.

April 16, 2021. Ice thickness still over 30" at the middle of the lake. No wind, blue sky and beautiful day. Slow day, only had a few bites and landed '2' lake trout.

Scordz: About 3.5 km south from Driftwood Boat Launch. Was there yesterday and caught '2' lake trout. Ice out in center of reservoir was still 30"+. Water depth between 63' - 65'.

Hi Artimis,where abouts were you on the lake?

Weather was clear, light breeze and sunny. Ice thickness was about 25"-30". Water depth 65-78 ft. Caught limit of lake trout, largest was 15 1/2". Great day on the lake.

Fished for a few hours opposite of boat launch in 63" of water. 3.5' of ice. Maybe one nibble. Close to a foot of snow makes for hard walking.

January 21, 2021. Ice about 18" thick. Depth in area was 65 feet about 1 km south of boat launch to middle of the lake. Landed '2' small lake trout but released them.

Was out today from 8am to 4pm. Only one laker bite in 90 ft of water. Quite a few fish on the fish finder but they didn't seem interested in anything we were offering. Went closer to shore at around noon to try for whitefish. Couple nibbles but nothing landed. Tons of people out on the ice. Not sure how successful anyone else was.

Excellent day today, fished at 106ft of water and caught my limit in an hour me and my friend. Ice thickness was just under 10 inches .

Was out on Dec.16 (6-7 in of ice)... fished near the cliffs in 80 FOW. Was looking for the big lakers. Caught 2 lakers. Lots of fish on the camera.

How thick is the ice, i am planning to go this weekend?

Onting i was out in 70 feet deep of water straight out from the driftwood boat launch walk straight in the middle of the lake

How far are you from shore and how deep? Planning to give a try this weekend. Thanks

Was out yesterday. Caught 1 laker & 1 whitefish. Ice thickness at the start of the lake is 6 inches and further south at driftwood is sketchy 3 inches lots of fish on the sonar

Hey guys ! How is the ice on spray ?? Ready to go ?

Biting well yesterday.Caught our limit in just over an hour

Fishing was slow between the 15th and 25th but has picked up a bit.We caught our limit yesterday.

Spent the day shore fishing. Driftwood and Sparrowhawk. No bites. No sign of fish.

A HotSpot Marker was added for Spray Lakes Reservoir

Hi zombarak

A fish and wild life officer stopped by and mentioned to me that she seen a guy pull a 21lb laker during this past ice fishing season, thats crazy i would love to see a picture

What an amazing weekend it was, I caught my record laker at Spay, almost 7lbs. Caught it from shore on a smelt. I still suck at catching whites there but next time i will try LGLG tricks. Good luck to you all.

Hello Bob5475, recent years I did not use any bait just the size 10 wired worm as I can get the white anyway. Early years tried a tiny bit of cut shrimp worked well, stopped using that as I feel once the white comes it will bite anyway plus using real bait causing more damage to the fish for fish you don’t want to keep. If you bring small children want them have fun for sure using some bait will always be good as fish tend to swallow it more vs a bare hook. Bait fish not allowed. Never tried with real worms but guess will work well.

sorry for typo! Hi LGLG thanks for sharing your experience and the tips. Do we need to add worm or other baits to the hook?
