Spearfishing burbot is going to be tough. They arent a fish you see all too often in daylight or in shallow water.

agreed... burbot have dementia - they get nasty at sundown till sunup :)

you could try sylvan lake. i have not seen any out of there since last spring but the ones i seen then were over 8 pounds :)

They are pretty much in all the res. around you. Just have to figure where in the lake. you know there are quite a few at Pine Coulee but they are not of any decent size.

Good luck with that.

Lots of burbs in the 2.5-3lb class at PCR.

There are tons of burbs in there. However, how would one go about spearfishing them? I just dont see it happening ever. Unless you are a super stealthy scuba diver.

go to sylvan lake and take a small boat and sightfish around the beach and the waterslides. I see a few sitting on the bottom everytime im out but it is closed for fishing for a few more days

it would be tough to spearfish pine coulee, i have scuba dived there befor and the water vizability is the shi*s how is sylvan for viz

That sounds like a really challenging mode of fishing. Especially for burbots because I've never seen a burbot close to shore in shallow water, unless it is during a whitefish spawn, or similar.
On the other hand, Mr. Wayne Christie does bow fish for lake whitefish occasionally. Wonder if he'd ever caught a burbot similarly?

put on scuba gear and flippers, swim down to the bottom, spear fish. dont forget the spear/spear gun in the boat.

Ive cought them by hand before in gregoir lake but the biggest one was about 12 inc's. Lots of them under big flat rocks along the shore line 1-2 feet of water.
