A good lake to fish in Saskatchewan
Hi Everyone,
I am looking at doing a 3 day Camping excursion in Sept to Saskatchewan. I am looking for some recommendations on lakes to visit and fish. I would say any lakes with a 200km distance from Lloydminster are open to the visit. I will be camping with a tent. I will have a 4X4 truck so roads will not be a real concern. From my understanding the secondary highways are an education in road maintenance... What I am looking for is a recommendation on a few good lakes that are not over populated, not very commercialized. I will have a depth finder and can pull of the depth charts so I know how deep I want to go and look for certain structures. I hear Tobin lake and Turtle Lake are good. I have also heard of Medow lake and Lac La Plonge What I will be fishing for are: 1) Lake Trout 2) Walleye 3) Northern Pike I have become familiar with the limits and regulations in Saskatchewan and now I am laying the groundwork for it to make it happen. Thanks in advance! |

Meadow lake PP is awesome and you will have your fill of fishing

Delaronde.
I have family that have a cabin there and we have never been let down fishing. |
If you don't want over populated stay away from Turtle and Tobin.
Get as far north as possible to get away from the crowds. |

Tobin isn't too bad, as most people wont make the drive up in September. Kids back in school, etc. |
Tobin is much further then 200 kms of Lloyd, more like 500 kms.
Sturgeon lake is a little further then 200(just over 300) but is a nice sheltered lake if you only have a small boat. I haven't been there in a few years but fishing was ok for pike and the odd walleye when we were there and the campground is fairly nice. Sturgeon is the closest lake to Lloyd I have fished in Sask. |

starting point.. I'm not opposed to going 400 -500 km from there. It appears that going to the northern lakes in saskatachewan is preferable... |
Are you talking Sturgeon lake north of Holbien near Prince Albert ? Lots of walleye and perch there !
|
Yeah that is the lake. We only got a few walleye and didn't target perch(didn't know they were good there).
We loved it there because the lake is so protected. Lakes like Tobin can be dangerous in a small boat and it doesn't take any wind at all to keep you on shore. At Sturgeon it would have to be extremely windy to force you off the lake. |
Dore can get really rough in a small boat as well. Go to pinehouse lk. if you want to catch alot of walleye, gordon lake close by has lakers in it too.
|
I second Meadow Lake PP. Has the species you are after and then some. Multitude of lakes to choose from.
|
Lots of variety in lakes/campgrounds at Meadow Lake PP, shouldn't be as busy there either. Although Keeley still stays busy into mid September.
|
Lac des iles i just got back from,and its still one of my favorite lakes,caught lots
