Just wondering if there is a pond in the kananaskis area that has enough ice to ice fish next weekend, one that I have a good chance of catching something in.
Thanks
NC

you can fish mclean pond. Try in 5 FOW, they like inch long yellow tube jigs or yellow genz worms. Velveeta works fairly well, so does power bait.

Ice fishing there is hit and miss

Two Sundays ago I went ice fishing in a small mountain lake and successfully hit into a nice Rainbow. It should be pretty easy to find a small lake with good ice on it at this point. Wedge should be OK, Sibbald, Mclean, and all of the hike in lakes would be good too.

Arctic grayling are really cool. I have tried ice fishing for them there as well. You can still ice fish without eating your catch.,

I very rarely keep fish, I keep the odd lake whitefish for a fish fry, I've fly fished wedge over the past years and Arctic grayling are such a nice fish , just wondered if anybody has tried to ice fish for them .

I've been wondering the same, I have friday off. Might head out and try it. I was there a couple weekends ago and it had enough ice to walk on
