Was out yesterday. Super windy. Caught 1 laker, too small and had only a few bites. Where have the fish gone?

Use sonar, drilled and marked all fish over 12 hint When you mark a fish do a retrieval at good speed first or match speed of fish

Smelts or shrimp work well

Ice fished Spray often over past 30 years. Not at all the same lake in last 3 years. Either poached or fished out. It's like a village on the ice on weekends now. Alberta Hunting, Fishing and Trapping mag. mostly to blame for saying it's the go to lake for Lakers. Still a lovely lake to get out on.

Hey guys, heading out to Spray tomorrow Jan 25, hoping to catch for first laker.. what is everyone using?

I know there is no limit on size but I don’t keep them unless it’s worth filleting...I will catch them next year

Fished Spray on Friday, January 21, 2022. Gorgeous day, mild breeze and both of us caught our limit. Ice was about 18 inches thick, water depth 60 - 70 feet where we were fishing. A few others fishing in same area. Saw dogsleds on East shoreline of lake.

there is no size limit for the lakers at Spray

Went about 1-1.5 km from driftwood fished in 60-70 ft looking for bigger Lakers. Joke was on me... caught 7..... only 1 keeper

Was out yesterday super windy. Fished 1-2 kilometres from driftwood caught 6 lake trout kept 2. Caught all before 1:30 then nothing for the next 2 hours

Winter solstice. Really windy today on Spray. Thank goodness we had a tent. Ice thickness, middle of lake just past Drftwood Boat Launch was 10". Fished in 73' of water and caught '2' lakers.

Artemis: to get birchwood you just drive past driftwood and you keep going till you fined it.

Moo: How far is Birchwood from the Driftwood boat launch and how deep are you fishing???

Was out yesterday at Birchwood.fished for 4 hours and caught 2 Lakers.... lots of fish on the camera.... about 5 inches of ice

Have your fishing license updated and also have your Kananaskis pass. There will be more Fish and Wildlife out and about

Was out Monday Dec 6. 3 other groups out fishing so out I went. Ice is 3 inches thick A little scary. Ice should be thickening up in the next few days. I fished at Birchwood and caught 2 in about 3 hours

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
