Saw -23c this morning in Val Marie and it's got the hard water excitement started for me.
-
LML iced over from regional park north----wont be long now!
-
I drove out to Strasbourg on Sunday and it's locked up from Valeport to Regina Beach, maybe further but the ice heaves are HUGE.
-
Has anyone had a look after this storm went through?
-
I was out this morning at daybreak/ Walked out 1.1 mile in front of Canyon Beach. Sitting on 6 inches of ice over 26 feet of water and caught a couple small perch.
Then the fog rolled in and could hardly see ten feet in front of me. The fish stopped biting probably got pretty dark down there. Had to follow my tracks to get back to the truck but could have used the gps if I had to. Going to give a rest for a few days.
-
Got on to Little Arm recently, about 5 - 6 " ice. We saw lots of carp and a few wallys on camera.
-
Carp!! I would love to catch one of those under the ice.
-
I agree anglerbrian, carp would be a blast to ice fish for. :tipup:
I have read that they are tough to catch through the ice,but, at times, it can be done. ;)
Here is an In-Fisherman link to ice fishing for carp ---> https://www.in-fisherman.com/editorial/mission-impossible-ice-fishing-carp/154003 (https://www.in-fisherman.com/editorial/mission-impossible-ice-fishing-carp/154003)

Any more reports on ice thickness? I was hoping to go out later today, looking mostly for perch and walleye.
-
I heard about a guy who fell throw the ice and drowned on last mountain recently. This is word of mouth news so not 100 percent certain of it but if anyone has any more information about it I'd appreciate the full story
-
Never heard anything like that. I was out today and drilled out to 30 feet of water, I was a consistent 7 inches.
-
I was out yesterday as well we took a quad and trailer full of gear out to 29 feet 7.5 inches of good black ice.
At the edge of the drop off to deeper water the ice was only 6 inches. I am hoping for a couple weeks of cold weather
to make the ice little thicker so can go to my waypoints from past years. Oh i should mention we were somewhere between Midway and Arlington.
-
Anyone been on around Sarnia across from Rowans?
-
I hope I’ve put the following on The Last Mountain page.
I was out at Glen Harbour Sunday, November 30th. Didn’t get out to fish walk on and out about 10 feet, consistent 6 inches thick. A heave over to the barn starting from the point where some walked out to fish. Another guy walked out at Moors and was fishing.
-
I'm fishing north of the regional park at the north end of Last Mountain. Ice is 12 inches so I drove to one of my regular spots looking for pike not even a nibble in the first hour.
-
Hopefully the fish start to bite for you anglerbrian. Nice day to be out at least. :)
There are usually a few pike hanging around there. :tipup:
WW
-
Fished little arm for pike last 2 weeks at narrow point by old bridge . 2 pike caught. Were are they. Last 2 years have not been good.
-
Good fishing on lml today, caught 5 walleye including this 27”, released back to hopefully be caught next year a bit thicker ;)

Nice going Wallyeyslayer306, good numbers and a dandy sized walleye to boot. :tipup: @)
Stick with them icepoint143, hopefully you find the good day your looking for.

Nice fish! Congrats on the catch!
-
That's a good fish! Glad she is still out there. Well done.
-
Three of my buddies and I were fishing at Collingwood yesterday and the bite was pretty good for us ... fairly consistent ice thickness of 7”.
One of my buddies and I discovered that someone had damaged both of our vehicles that were parked on the shore. It appears to be an ice auger that caused the damage.....
I understand accidents happen , but when you do have an accident and don’t leave a contact number that’s unacceptable 😡
I ask the guilty person to please contact me and we can sort this out how it should done .
If anyone else knows of this happening, please contact , thanks...
I have included pics....

Nice fish Walleyslayer306. Thinking of heading to LML around Triple T Beach. Is it safe to walk on from there? Pretty safe walking on all around LML? Any help would be appreciated.
-
Been 4 wheelers driving all over east of triple t. Ive been out to 35 ft depths, 7 to 8 inches thick . Trucks driving on ice in bay for the last week or more
-
probably going on at sarnia this weekend.. any ice updates after this warm spell would be appreciated..!!
-
Fishing has been slow in my usual spots the past two days, last week the fishing was really good maybe once we get this cold front it’ll pick up! Still first ice so walleyes should be hot!
-
Thanks fishfinder1 appreciate the info on the ice at Triple T.
-
Nice fish Walleyslayer306. Thinking of heading to LML around Triple T Beach. Is it safe to walk on from there? Pretty safe walking on all around LML? Any help would be appreciated.
Ice in the bay at Triple t is 12inches thick just out in the main part of the lake 9 inches and heading east to about 26 plus foot depths much thinner.
-
Good day...We would like to try fishing around Triple T was wondering where the closest place to stay overnight would be, as this is our very first trip to Last Mountain...and of course any fishing tips will help alot...Thanks
-
Try liberty bar, they mite be renting rooms, also a bed and breakfast in liberty. 15 mins from triple t
-
Ok will do thanks for the info much appreciated.....
-
Hey fellas ... is there any snow cover on the ice In the Sabrina and northward areas or is it bare ice up there too like Alice Beach area? ??
Thanks in advance for feedback!
-
from the south end of Island View/Rowan's and northward is snow covered so take a snowmobile, everything south of that is clear ice which requires ice cleats or skates.
-
Are people able to safely drive trucks on at Collingwood or Midway yet?
How this is the ice please and thanks.
-
I was out by White Rock yesterday (walked on) and was out the week before at Alice ... Ice hasn’t thickened in my opinion ... but hopefully someone that has covered more areas and been out more frequently can comment .... but I sure as hell wouldn’t put a truck wheel on the ice. White Rock had early ice wind-broke in areas and inconsistent thicknesses but even the ‘good’ ice is 8” ish and a bit inconsistent. My two cents.
-
Thank you Rap. These cold days will make some progress.
-
8.5" of ice yesterday at little arm bay. some guy drove out with his 1/2 ton and it was still topside when we left. He has bigger nuts than I do that's for sure. Fishing was very slow, was out from 8am - 5:30pm and only managed to bring 2 perch and a tulibee topside.
-
Wow....with only 8 1/2 inches, that is borderline crazy to be driving on. I will be driving onto Blackstrap this coming Wed or Thur for the first time when it warms up, as we had 11 to 13 inches in spots on Saturday.
-
I simply cannot think of a worse way to die than to go through the ice in a 1/2 ton...opening the door and swimming/floating to the top and simply being unable to get out of the water...or not even making it that far...or just sitting there and having a big ol' pike come up to the window and say.." we have been wanting to have a serious talk with YOU for some time now!!!!.
-
Can you get on at sarnia and head south to the island, any pressure ridges yet?
Heading out tomorrow in the dark
-
Try liberty bar, they mite be renting rooms, also a bed and breakfast in liberty. 15 mins from triple t
Liberty Bar is renting rooms for only $35 a night, we stayed there Monday/Tuesday. Very friendly staff, great wings, good selection of local beer. Its nice to wake up to a 15 minute drive to the lake.
It was pretty slow at Triple T but my gal did get a nice one.

Nice one jay! Thanks for the info on the rooms too.
-
Hello Fellow Fisher men and women. Nice to see everyone staying active on the site.
anyone see any atvs driving on the lake around Regina Beach or still to sketchy?
going out on Friday to try my luck.
-
ATVS & snowmobiles have been flying around for a week or two now.
-
Thanks Jayg......wow, room for $35 a night, and good wings. I think I will take my wife for a second honeymoon. And while I am fishing,
I will tell my wife to take my credit card and go crazy shopping in Liberty.
-
Any reports of people driving onto Last Mountain yet, or is it still to sketchy?? TIA
-
Thanks Eight Inch
-
Pulled my shack with quad east of triple t. Im at 31 ft depth, 10 inches ice. Seen a 1/4 ton truck pulling camper came on at canyon beach road.
They are at 34 ft depth level ne of me. There mite be 8 inches of ice there.
Crazy.

nice work Evan Nim.
-
Very nice Wally!!
-
Has anyone been out around Collingwood in the last day or two? Just curious on ice thickness.
-
A buddy of mine was fishing near Midway not far from Collingwood 12 inches of ice reported. If it doesn't snow too much tomorrow I will give it a try and report back.
-
AnglerBrian... did you make it to midway today? Access still good after snowfall?
-
Unfortunately No! I believed the weatherman and stayed home. Not sure about the Strasbourg area but we had just a trace of snow here. I won't make it out until Boxing day now.
-
Went to Collingwood on Sunday. Foot of ice where I was. About 8 trucks out and some shacks.

-
I am just north of Midway 27 for and a hair over 14 inches of Ice one small perch so far
-
Finished the day with two Walleye three perch and a Tullibee. Made for a nice breakfast this morning except for the Tullibee it's still swimming.
-
New to ice fishing, looking for some areas in and around Regina on Last Mountain other than Regina Beach area. Thanks for the help.
-
Anyone know the ice thickness at Collingwood? My legs are tired...
-
Was out on Christmas Day. Ice was between 12-14 inches around the shacks just to the north.
Trucks were driving around that area.
-
At Alice Beach. Ice is thick, ~ 14" Trucks, shacks and tents up and down the lake both east and west sides but the fishing is slow. Anyone finding them? Hooks don't matter, not seeing anything on camera.
-
Forgot a Mr heater and propane tank on the ice at Gibbs Beach (Last Mountain Lake) on dec 30, if anyone happened to hear of someone finding one! I’d love to have it back, beer and karma to follow!
-
Anybody know when a red (Ford)??? truck broke thru the ice at Pelican Point? Could only see top of cab so couldn’t tell what make it was.

Classic. Happens every year. You think people would learn by now about that spot. 😳🙄
-
Has anyone been out to the island across from Rowens this year?
-
For those that are discouraged, in the last 8 days I saw more big walleye caught and released on LML than I've ever seen in my life. And I fish a lot. If you're not marking fish, move, get out of your comfort zone. Don't just set up to where the other tents are. Try new ground. This week was amazing. Tight lines and Good luck out there.
-
Snell1 That is great to hear! I am new to fishing long lake so am not sure where to go. I have been out several times to Alice and Weetoo but have not had the luck that you are talking about. Is there somewhere specific that you would suggest trying? Or even a depth range to help me improve my luck? I know that long lake has some bad ice spots but am not familiar enough to know where they are. I would sure hate to find them on my own......
-
Hey Snell 1,
Well said and I agree about the walleye.
I’m also glad to hear some of those big ones are getting put back to reproduce.
Have tight lines and stay safe.

That is good to hear Snell I have been out to Island View and Rowans in 9 hours of sitting on the ice with my daughter all we managed was an 18” Walleye. Rowans on Tuesday was really windy and really slow.
Even using my best baits and tricks...nada
Would drop the camera down every once and a while see a few Perch but nothing wanting to gobble up our treats....dunno what I’m doing wrong.....so yes discouraged 🤔🤔😡
-
Anyone try out near Lipps? Any tips for a first timer at Last Mountain lake?
-
Hey Uzo, If you're not marking them all day, You gotta move. They might not always be biting, but they have to be there. Try deeper than you're used to fishing. Good Luck!
-
What beautiful day to be out fishing! No wind for the morning, lovely sunrise and warm weather for Jan. Today was my first time out at Alice. The bite was slow and very light, although I did manage to catch 8 Perch and 6 Wally's. Big shout out to Brad for the great visit during the last couple of hours.
-
Anything good around regina beach or koonokimaw
-
Does anyone know if you can get on at Sorenson?
-
Looking for some ice conditions at sarnia. My buddy was out last week in a truck but said the heaves were starting. Any word on how thick the ice is in that area and how bad the heaves are? Looking to go south of the island with my dad. Feel free to PM me. Thanks.
-
A week ago Sarnia area was showing 20+ inches of ice. Can easily drive any direction.Good luck.
-
Hi Whytie, I agree with Bisonfisher on the 20+ inches of ice, extremely bumpy and rough the first 50-100 yards out from shore but just go slow till it smooths out and no issues.
As for heaves there is a heave at the south end of the Island and heads across towards Islandview but from what we could see it peaters out 2/3rds of the away across and that was confirmed by watching people leave the island and head that way to get off the lake in the evening so obviously they were able to get past it.
So Sarnia to the island is clear sailing for ya, good luck and tight lines.
I'm curious as Adam the Fisherman was as well about anyone accessing the lake at Sorensons, ice conditions, heaves,etc,etc.
Or even Highwood and Kedelston for that matter?? Any info would be awesome, TIA guys.
-
Sounds good guys thanks for the heads up. :thumbsup:
-
Whytie, forgot to mention you can also get past the ridge south of the “beach” if you bear toward the island. There was a safe crossing there last Friday.
-
After this storm, thanks to anyone cleaning the way on to the lake. It's going to be tough digging out shacks this weekend.
-
Any reports on shacks around Henderson’s. Bay Area?
-
Any reports by triple T area for campers and shacks? Hoping for the best!
-
This isn't first hand knowledge but I got it from a source who lives at Etters Beach. Several flipped and damaged shacks in the Etters area and at Henderson's. Said there were camper conversion shacks "With their wheels in the air". Some shacks that were frozen in really well were fine. My Dad's little 6'x8' shack that was frozen in and right in the bay at Henderson's survived.
-
Can anybody report about shacks at Alice Beach? Are any damaged or flipped?

How's the ice around Collingwood? Ready for half-ton yet? Thanks!
-
I have been out to Island View, Rowans, and Collingwood and have been on top of 12-16 inches of ice at depths of 30 ft to 12 ft.
The ice is plenty thick almost as thick as my brain other than 1 decent Wally all I’ve managed to do is inflame my hemorrhoids.
As always use common sense, when in doubt walk on.
Best of Luck 😬👍👍
-
on at IslandView again today
Fished all the way from 30ft-18ft... slow afternoon caught a couple small eyes that came up gently and back down again to grow up some. Decided to pack up and head to Rowans for the last bit.....fished 10-12 ft managed to do slightly better. Seen lots on the camera just casually swimming by staring at baits and doing everything except taking a hook. No issues getting on. Ice is getting THICK have a feeling I’m going to need an extension in another month....going to have to find one or buy one. As it is my StingRay blade is getting to about 3/4 up the shaft before finding water...pretty impressive. Now if the fish would stop making me look stupid all would be right with the world.
Be safe everyone.😬👍
-
Hows the fishing been at triple T lately? Might head that way tomorrow and lookin for some walleye
-
Looking to head out for an overnight camp this on the 23/24. Went around rowans, white rock area on the 9th and it was slooooow. Marking lots but only caught one baby walleye and a burbot in 14 hours. Is it better ANYWHERE else on the lake? Heard rumours etters was doing good but can’t really confirm it. Would like to get on some fish if we’re going to spend the night.
-
I heard some guys had water coming through the unfrozen holes in their shacks during that wind storm and making a mess of their shacks, also seen some good pools of water refrozen on top of the ice.. would this have been from the pressure of the ice with the windstorm?
-
Mac pheat area had tons of water on the ice, buddies shack was flooded as well. Combination of the wind and big snow drifts around the shacks
-
Has anyone been on at midway lately? Can you easily get on the ice there? Hoping to venture out Friday.
-
I was there last Tuesday before the windstorm. At that time access was good and only 4" of snowcover all over. Fishing was dead in 23-30' though however there are lots of suspended ciscoes 5' off the bottom. Not sure how the snowdrifts have affected access now, however.

Hey guys, I’m planning to head out to Last Mountain for the first time this weekend. I’m planning to stay at the hotel in Liberty, looking for some advice on where to fish. Not asking for anyone’s secret spots, just a general idea of where to park and and access the ice. As I said I will be coming from Liberty, so looking at maps I should aim for somewhere around the Triple T and/or Etters beach? If anything I would like to know how to get closest to the lake in those areas as I won’t be driving on unfamiliar ice. Planning to park my truck and pull a sled out on foot. Thanks in advance!
-
If you go to triple t you will see lots of truck and shacks east of mouth. Guys been driving on main lake since late dec.
Ice is 14 to 15 inches where i have been at the 30 to 35 ft depths.
-
6 hours and eked out 2 walleye and a cisco today at Alice Beach. Perch, walleye and ciscoes made appearances on the flasher and camera but for the most part in a negative mood. A perch sucked in a minnow head off the bottom, tasted it then spit it out like a pea shooter. That pretty much says it all.
-
Does anyone know if/how the access is at kedleston beach? Bringing my tow behind shack from Moose Jaw. Thanks in advance.
-
Anyone tried a nite fish on LML, and did you have any luck thinking of trying one later in the week when warmer.
-
I fished at night few times. Sometimes the burbot action is great. Full moon can be good. Also a chance at walleye.
-
Looking at doing some evening and night fishing as well over the weekend but having a hard time choosing where I want to go out of 3 possibilities...Sarnia, Midway and Triple T. Anyone have any suggestions to push me to one of them over the others?
Thanks in advance! 😀
-
Heading out to the mountain tomorrow for the first time in 10 years (okay, only 2 weeks but it feels like an eternity) hoping to get on some mid day perch. Looking forward to having a calmer day out on the ice and not having to worry about getting blown away. Good luck to everyone getting out this weekend, tight lines :tipup:
-
He guys, I’m a resident out at Canyon Beach, just figured I’d give everyone a heads up that a truck broke through this morning straight out from the cabins in 20’ of water. All 4 tires broke through and truck was sitting on the frame. Another resident was able to run out with his half ton and get him out. My shack is in that area and the ice is 20” as of yesterday. Be careful out there guys, this ice this year is a bit different than past years! Stay on the topside everyone
-
Thanks Ozzie , and just for the ones that aren't all that familiar with Long Lake Canyon resort is on the east side of LML pretty much staright across from
Triple T and Big Arm areas. I believe the Duval grid takes you to the Resort. Correct me if I'm wrong guys. Last weekend south of Sarnia by the Island which is across from Rowans and Island View we only had 21"-22" of ice. So for February that's not overly thick. Yes be safe out there every one.

There must be a reason a truck went through in that area though isn't there? 20" of ice is plenty for driving..? IM not overly familiar with the lake, im aware of the common areas to avoid but this seams like a pretty safe spot to be cruising isn't is?
-
Hi ozzy, how close to the little pink shack by the locals village?
-
North east about 200 feet. It was just off the blown in trail that used to be there. I think the ice is like Swiss cheese there in all honesty. There were a lot of holes drilled around there in December. Seemed to be the place for everyone to go.
-
Does anyone know if the Sorenson boat launch has been cleared? thanks!
-
Wasn’t like a week ago, ruts were pretty deep
-
Wasn’t like a week ago, ruts were pretty deep
Yeah the weekend of Feb 6 it was impassable after the second big wind/snow event. up until then it was rutted but ok.
-
Does anyone know what the closest access to the caraganas is on the west side of the lake?
-
West side of lake would be Penzance landing, it is pretty much straight across from the 3 wind rows of trees....
If the windrows your talking about are the ones By Midway landing.
-
Is the grid road maintained to lake on west side at penzance landing? Have driven around to midway in past but would be nice to access from west.
-
TS86 in years past it's been good to go, i don't think it's ever been maintained right to the waters edge as the grid does a 90 degree corner a couple hundred yards from the shore line. I haven't been there this year yet but it's a pretty popular access point for the west side locals so a person would just have to go check it out.
-
Hi Everyone,
Looking at going for Perch at Rowan’s Ravine or within 5K of the area, any suggestions, depth?
-
Hi Everyone,
Looking at going for Perch at Rowan’s Ravine or within 5K of the area, any suggestions, depth?
If your bent on going to Rowans 12-16 feet
Not deeper. But in all honesty You will have better luck at Regina Beach. We caught way more fish there including a very large Northern that went back to live another day.
It’s been slow at Rowans least before the cold snap it was. Heading out this weekend
Back to Rowans looking for more Walleye
If you do head out look for an orange and blue Tacoma come by and say hi or if ya wanna borrow a fish cam to take a a peek underneath feel free. I always bring it along but rarely use it. Find the sonar is enuf for me.
Best of Luck
-
any new ridges to get around from sarnia to the rock pile?
-
Thanks for the quick reply Uzo. May hit up Regina Beach tomorrow or Friday then Rowan’s on the weekend. I’ll keep an (wall)eye out for you!

trail is possibly blocked
was there before the cold set in
i went south of the trail 1/4 mile and there was a trail thru the field that lead back to the trail and onto the ice
-
Anyone know how much ice on the lake? Just wandering if i need my auger extension yet?
Thanks

I have always had pretty good luck for perch and even walleye right in front of the
beach at Rowans 15-25 feet
-
How is access at Midway and Rowan's?
Anyone having any luck at either?
Thanks in advance! 😀
-
There was 28" of ice at Alice Beach on Tuesday. I will now need an 18" extension from inside my camper.
I imagine the ice is thicker in other places.
-
Anyone catching anything on the mountain lately ? Talked to a few people and they said its been bad everywhere this winter 🤷♂️

I haven’t fished the mountain this winter but overall I’m hearing the same thing from guys that I trust and guys that can fish. Slower than normal fishing this winter on most lakes it seems. Not sure what that’s about....
-
Was out all day on Monday, marked tons of fish but couldn't get anything to bite. Buddy caught a small walleye and small pike. Super slow day. Hopefully it picks up soon!!
-
Can anyone recommend good guided services for Last Mt. for day trip w/shack?
Thanks

Cody Kohler from Chamberlain runs a side line Guiding service. PM him I'm sure he could help ya out.

I fished just north of the old bridge at little arm on south side of shore 19 feet on Feb 22 and caught
7 perch and a sucker in first hour then it was done. When perch came in they were biting. Came back on feb25. 2 perch came by caught one and that was it some pike came buy and were not interested even after changing hooks.

Hi rapripper,
For an ice fishing guided adventure on LML there is also MTN Man Outdoors & Saskatchewan Outdoors Outfitting.
Here is the website for both guides https://www.mtnmanoutdoors.com/ (https://www.mtnmanoutdoors.com/) & http://saskatchewanoutdoors.ca/fishing.html (http://saskatchewanoutdoors.ca/fishing.html)
G&S Marina Outfitters out of Rowans Ravine is another guiding service, but, think they only operate during the open water season.

How is access at Etters? Can a guy drive anywhere on the lake or is there too much snow?
-
Fished all morning, very slow.. was at Sarnia then south to the island. Few perch and cisco’s.
Stupid question... Is it common for a pressure ridge to dissipate or go away...?! I was certain I had to cross one to get to the island, but it was gone or at least i Couldnt see any more

Caught this 3 1/2 Pike on 2 lb test Trilene Micro Ice line at Clearview. Perfect drag setting to bring her in. Was challenging fun folks! Thanks to Gord at Pokey’s for the tips.

Looks like there are still some fish in LML after all. Well done Cerndo.

This past week at lml has had it's ups and downs. Lots of perch at Rowans in 15-18ft but hardly any worth keeping. Moved around and managed my PB walleye. Also moved around a lot looking for burbot, long days with very few fish. Definitely spawning on the south end of the lake, pre-spawn feeding further up the lake. Hopefully this warm weather really fires them up!

Great photos YoungGun96!

I love to see those big eyes going back. Nice fish.
-
Nice fish guys.
Happy to hear the burbot are starting to go. Anyone have any ice reports for the PP area? Heard there is open water now and a heave opened up. Pretty typical for area, but good to be aware of.

Was at LML on Saturday with jpicks. Was a pretty great day all in all, but fairly windy. Lots of flood water on the ice by the end of the day. Fishing was far from fast and furious, but we caught a mixed bag ( Pike, Whitefish, Perch, Tulibee and Eelpout )

Was dead as a doorknob for us yesterday but it was a pretty nice day, weather-wise. Schools of cisco are cool though.

Cool photo..!
Anyone on the lake today ( sunday) hows the ice and access?
Heading out tomorrow, just checking in after a warm day
-
Just wondering how access at Etters or triple T is?
-
We walked out today but talked to a guy driving the lake. Said he came on at Etter’s and the access there was still good.
-
Has anyone been out on the ice last couple days? What’s the access like? Thanks.
-
I’m hoping to go out one last time this weekend. I can’t seem to find walleye anywhere. Does anyone have a general location where the March walleye would be?
-
I walked out a couple of days ago and couldn’t believe a guy drove out and fished north of Grandview. Where I was drilling the ice was tight shards for about a foot and then rot. I couldn’t believe it. Caught a couple of targeted Pike, letting go about an eight pound female. Kept a 4 pound male. Heading out to our cabin for the night to hopefully take in the last day of the season for this year.
