Bridge construction no access to Swan by truck

Was there yesterday and ice was 5-6%u201D thick

going to head out here for the first time ever this winter. Anyone know where to fish? and is it a no bait lake?

3 pike. Lots of bites. Then got windy. And I was sunburned.

One small pike today. About 20".

12-13" of ice yesterday. No luck fishing.

Any ice reports? Thinking of heading out Saturday

Was out today. Tried hard to find a laker with no luck at all. 12" of ice.

Ice Report: 8 in
Most holes 8 inches deeper water had only 6-7 inches

Finally caught me a lake trout here after 4 years of trying. Pike fishing was steady with no big guys

Spent the day on the ice, no fish to report. Talked with a family who was camping there and they said no one has caught any since they got there on Thursday.

Never made it to swan today. Went to Gull instead, wind is brutal. Try again for the last weekend next week.

Thanks a bunch Bruno! I will post how we make out tomorrow. Cheers

the road to the lake was really good . the ice was anywhere from 12 to 16 inches a few guys drove there truck on the lake today and fished for 7 hours only saw one huge laker by the river across from the boat launch she look at my lure for 5 min and took off . other group of fisher caught a small pike and that all . good luck guys

I will be heading out on the 4th, first time this winter.

hey Bruno I am heading in on the 2nd and was wondering the same thing. If you don't hear anything please post on how your trip goes. Goodluck! Cheers!

i will be going to swan lake on the first and just wondering if i will be able to drive up to the lake or the road is close and i will need to walk info will be appreciated thank all

Any one know how thick the ice is?

How's the fishing been lately?

Catch big browns on flat fish trolling closer to shore with a little less weight.have to use heavy fluorocarbon line behind a swivel due to pike encounters. Don't use a steel leader

does anyone went to fish lake in the last few day just wondering if the laker are still bitting and if the camp ground is busy

fished for 10 hours today only one laker and one pike very slow day of all the other fisher on one other pike got caught today

10.4 lb laker

okay that look like a weird guy lol but I got told they only bite on fly but not sure which one . I will try what you said and I hopefully get lucky tomorrow

camped at the lake over 10 years ago, a guy nick named poindexter by the campers, caught massive brown trout between 6 to 9 pounds and I saw two of them on the dock on his 1st day, I looked at him, and asked what did you use and where, the answer was ..............................................silence ... the guy was weird he slept in the trees, no tent, and in a canoe .... anyways going back to the lake ,,, is it still 1 - 3 ounce inline weights with f-7 flat fish ...real slow? bruno27, you could text me at 403 358 9999 with the info (if you want)

I will be going back there tomorrow hopefully to catch more big one . the road to the lake is awful took about 20 min to make it

Wow that's Great! Good for you! I've never landed any browns in Swan. I always stick to the lakers. Can't wait to get out this weekend. Thanks for the update ! Cheers bud

lots of rain but fishing was really good caught a 11.2 lb 10.4 lb 9.1lb and 7 other smaller lakers between 5am to 4pm . A wild life office will be spending the summer at the lake doing a survey on the lakers and brown trout to see if the population is still healthy and figure out if they should change the regulation for next year . What is the secret to catch those massive brown trout?

Let us know how you make out Bruno27 ! Good luck!

im going there tomorrow for opening day

Any ice fishing reports?

Just learning to fish for lakers and wondering what the best hooks and bait is for them? Thanks

Nice place to camp and fish. Good boat launch but shallow. Great for small boats, canoes, kayaks, pontoons, etc. My friend caught a monster pike. Too big for us to handle from the pontoons. Trophy Lake.

only restirction is 15 km/hr, just google boat restrictions at swan lake alberta and will have great websites, picture of lake and all amenities, hope this helps ... cheers .... doyle ... huge brown trout up to 12lbs, early season lake trout can be big use flat fish size 7 troll really, really slow .... good luck .....

Wondering if anyone knows the legal boat/motor restrictions for this lake? Or where the proper place to look it up is. Any help is appreciated
