Prepare yourself to walk a long way, in deep snow. A flasher is nearly necessary for consistent results.

I figured there would be lots of snow. No tips for lures?

Can't drive on with a motorized vehicle, it's in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park.

Last time I was there, the flood water was 4-6" from the recent snowfall.

I agree with you Sharpie; frequent water fluctuations of a hydroelectric reservoir in a protected environment need protection from the potential of motorized vehicles going through the ice.

Walking makes the skunk so much more worth it.
