Eagle Lake Saskatchewan 2019

[flag-man]

I am looking for information on this lake, Ie: entry point, fish population. I know there was a healthy perch population a few years ago. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

have heard that it winterkilled, have not been there to confirm

Last fished it myself 3 years ago and caught a mess of stunted perch with the odd 9-10” mixed in. Used to be full of jumbos and could catch lots of 1lb plus every time out.

Also, there were pike being caught in the lake the last couple years before the rumoured winter kill. It’s a relatively shallow lake and not very big.

It was stocked with 200,000 walleye fry in 2016 and 100,000 walleye fry in 2019. So I expect better days ahead in the next couple of years.

There’s two access points, North and South side. I use the south side in the winter because it is a very steep incline on the north. You can find it on google maps pretty easy. If you do get the chance to head out there, I’m interested to hear how you make out.

This lake had two winterkills in three yearseven plus an algae bloom that killed more fish. very few fish left give it a rest for a couple years
