[KillBilly]

Lows of -22 this week so hopefully it won't be long.  I walked across the dugout at the farm on Thursday but by Sunday it had melted in the rain

Lakes im hoping to hit this winter

Swan
Snipe
Boot
Joker
Utikima
Sturgeon
Two Lakes

I'm sure there will be more but this will be a start

Id like to check out lakeland provincial park this year now that i have a new sled . im also looking for a 10+ lb pike ,some perch over a pound, and id also like to drop a line in cold lake for a laker..Oh and ive got tags to fill at pigeon lake....I wonder if the algae will cause problems with visibility this winter?

[TravIce]

Had the boat out for the last time a few weeks ago on Pigeon, water clarity was actually quite good considering the amount of algae it had this summer.

sweet i gave up fishing there this summer cause it was soo thick it grossed me out a little. I heard it actually killed off some whites hope the fishing is good this winter.

[TravIce]

Lots of whites floating in the summer, lots of REALLY BIG WHITES actually.  I fished it quite a few times this summer, and usually we caught more than enough to keep us coming back for more.  Definately making plans to hit it this winter...

Boot is on the BC side out by Kelly Lake, brookies and rainbows.  Joker is east of Caddotte then north, lots of perch and little jack.  If you were to spend a weekend up there you could hit Haig and Sawn as well.

They are all up this way sort of, check out http://www.anglersatlas.com/ or Barry Mitchels Alberta Fishing Guide.  I only ever get to fish southern alberta in the summer when we visit family in the pass.

With BM's fishing bible, a rod and an auger its pretty easy to break up the day when your on the road 8)
