Ice Report: 11 in

Thank you! Headed out today to fish.

Yes there’s two huts on the South Bay Area and about 9.5 inches of solid ice

Any shacks on Buffalo Lake yet? Thanks.

6-1/2 inches

6-8%u201D I was told on another site. As of Dec 1st

Hey guys anyone been out to check how thick the ice is? Thanks.

thank you !

Yes you can go to the narrows you can catch off shore, or go to Rochon sands

Can you shore fish lake ? thinking of going camping here thanks

Can I get on the lake with a fishing trailer?

Senic all weekend pulled 10-15 every afternoon. Kids loved it.

Slow fishing east of narrows windy day to be fishing

Usually Rochan sands bay well traveled. Some locals plow with side by side n such. Senic sands usually traveled and accessible. If it's deep I will be out with bobcat tonight. Good fishing!!!!!

Heard a lot of lakes north of Edmonton have too much snow to drive on the lake. Has anyone driven their truck on Buffalo Lake recently? If so, where would you recommend accessing from?

Fishing east of narrows fishing slow today but great weather

Not overkill at all. You have a much better chance of getting large pike than the guy who's seriously undergunned with 20lb flouro.

100lb is overkill. But when you have a pike take your 20$ crankbait cause he bit through your leader it doesnt seem so

I personally think 100lb test is 100% overkill. I use 10-15lb power pro ice teck and then change my leader depending o. Species I'm after. Perch/walleye- 8lb flourcarbon (4ft leader). Lakers 16-20lb flourcarbon (4-6ft leader). Pike tend to be less particular to line but I still use flourcarbon leader 20lb. Tie a swivel to your main line then tie on your leader. On a %u201Chot day%u201D line size/Color will not effect your productiveness but on slow days you would be amazed at the difference a flourcarbon leader can have on results. In fairness Never used 50 or 100lb line so I'm not sure what to say about effectiveness but I do know I always outfish the guy who has cheap mono for line.

Hey thanks for the help guess I'll go out and get some heavier stuff

An viynl coated 50lb tip up line on my tip ups. Id rather straighten a hook or have them pull out then have a pike bite through my leader or line. No worse feeling than loosing a picture worthy fish to inadequate tackle

Terminal tackle is key. I use 100 lb fluro leaders. Good swivels. Mist fish are lost trying to get their head up the hole. I use 50lb braid on my rod and adjust the drag so i dont break my rod. Most people dont catch big fish cause their under gunned. Not cause they cant hook them

its the 10lb ice braided line, same as the black stuff just orange but thanks for the tip. think it was getting cut on the bottom of the hole just not use to pike this big yet.

Nothing wrong with 10lb line in my opinion. Lots of factors. Knot tying, drag, weather, leaders, type of line.....

Hey maybe use your brain and use thick ice line like the black stuff instead of breaking 10lb line on fish, Come on people get the proper equipment before going

Got 6 burbs and 4 keeper pike before lunch sunday

I’ve only fished the lake twice this year but fished the exact same areas you just mentioned. The bay you speak of is full of huts so I imagine people do well there but I didn’t catch anything. We moved out of the bay along the shore towards the island and did really well. Found a transition from 3ft of water to 6ft and set up there. Keep moving around and keep trying. I’m my limited experience you are in an area that produces fish.

and does any one know if there's any fish in the delburne lakes, im probably going to try the northern section tomorrow and no depths on navionics so any help would be appreciative

fished at Rochon sands for the past couple days inbetween the dock and island and just outside the cove to the south, seen only four small pike and five monsters, only landed one small guy and broke my line twice, got 10lb line on and still broke with leaders._still new to the area any recommendations on better spots on the lake?__ps if anyone finds a tone of lures ive lost a few lol

Fished Senic today slower than The 2nd coming of Christ seen a few

Fishing east of narrows caught lots no keepers

What's the stoy over by the park boat launch?

Run an gun tip ups. Got my limit in 2hrs saturday with 2 guys. Nothing big but all around 29%u201D. Big ones go back anyways

Thank you everyone. Now anyone catching burbot and know a good spot.

One heave from the island to the north end. Yes you can get on

We usually just get on at scenic sands boat launch. Take my 28' trailer in there.

Rochon sands Buffalo sands senic sands boss hill the Narrows lots of choices

I was hoping someone could let me know the best place to get on the ice???

Spewy, do you know if there are heaves at rochon sands? Can I drive on there?

Got 6 pike and 1-8lb burb

Can you drive on at white sands yet. Ice was piled up at the boat launch before xmas

Ice Report: 18 in
Good solid ice. Out with pickups

Any ice reports?

I took mine with the quad only dumb people are driving out right now people with half a brain aren't, Ice didn't form that well to be driving on just yet

How's the ice thickness in the bay at Rochan? Can pull a shack out with a pick up?

Fishing has been slow and not great fishing hard to catch keepers ice access is limited not many ppl driving on

anyone having any luck. ? At gull... pretty slow here, thinking of heading that way. thank you

Rochan sands is where I always access the lake.

I was thinking of taking my Family ice fishing here. Where are some access points for getting on the ice? Thanks.

10" on the north west side of the lake, people were driving small cars out onto the lake.
