Chain Lakes Access Locked? (Clive/Ponoka)
Hi there,
I was just out this morning to take my 4 year old son on his first Ice fishing trip, and we were planning on hitting the middle chain lake. I haven't fished there in about 2 years, but the access I normally am used to using has a bunch of rocks and debris piled up blocking it, and about 50 yards west there are two gates, one chain and the other made of pipe, both locked tight.
There is a Lacombe Fish and Game Sign up with information about how to rent a campground, but no information about why there are locked gates.
Does anybody know what is going on here? Is this lake closed?
We ended up going to the lower lake instead and were able to catch one Pike, and eat a bunch of junk food, so the trip was still good, but I am a little puzzled as to why the access would be blocked into this lake.
Ice was 18" with about 10 feet of water underneath us on the lower lake.
