Logan Lake Named 1 of 9 Best Ice Fishing Destinations in Canada

Recognized as a world-class Rainbow Trout fishery, Logan Lake is located at the heart of the town named after the lake. As winter comes to the valley, the snow falls and the temperatures drop, Logan Lake becomes a winter wonderland. It’s hardly surprising that it’s also one of the best ice fishing destinations Canada has to offer.

The hard water season begins sometime around late December with the peak of Rainbow Trout fishing. Oxygen levels are still high, which makes the fish as hungry as ever. Rainbows hang out in relatively shallow areas, cruising the bottom in search of leeches, snails, and other invertebrates in muddy and weeded areas.

Ice anglers drill holes in the areas with flat shoals and drop-off ledges, looking for the weed lines. If the conditions are right, anglers can also come across other interesting fish species that hide beneath the ice.
