is there ice yet?

Came here for perch but could not get anything. Any tips Or places where I could hook some perch?

went out again on the 21st, Monday, bite was hot again, between the two of us 36, one walleye at 70 cm, all the rest were all "A" ... only fished for three hours ... time to get out the bite is on ....

got out on the lake on the 19th, went with my good friend Keith, started late, on the lake at 12:30 and fished till 5, total of 46 fish caught, sadly 1/2 were pike and the rest were all big "A' walleye, lots of time left to fill your tags, all were on jig and minnow, with the superstore smelts. 2 pounds for $9.98 ...

Hammered 1- 60cm Wally today! Other than that...slllooooowww on the Walleyes. Hopefully the weather holds up for tomorrow and we can get out one last time!

fritzy1475 .... right on the bottom ...._

Doyle, Are the walleye right on the bottom, or are they suspended? Thanks

no so simple there are six Ian Ross's on FB, search my name Doyle Hansen, my profile picture is my grade 1 picture, asked for a friend request, then I can get you to the honey hole ,,,

will do_

Hey Doyle, my name is Ian Ross. Send me a friend request and I will accept it. I appreciate it very much!

just dig it /// please leave me a cell number and I will text you or FB messenger, you would have to accept my friend request though ... but I will put you on the exact spot and you will be done in an hour thanks doyle_ _

It’s supposed to read ....A..... tags

Thanks for the update Doyle! It's going to be our first time there and we have some %u201CA%u201D tags to fill, where would one go on the lake to fill those tags if you don't mind me asking???

Thanks Doyle. Is the Sandy Point launch public?

was out again on Sunday the 6th of October, all jig and minnow, the two of us caught 76 walleye, 2 "c", 1 "b" all the rest were "A" ... we have b tags to fill ... ran out of minnows at 3 PM ... called it a day ... aspen beach launch has been in bad shape all year, shallow, best to launch at Sandy Point since it is the closet to all fishing spots and the best launch on the lake ... why burn up gas ... thanks doyle

Is the Aspen beach boat launch still open?

Brewers is at the south end of the lake, and the Sandy Point Resort is the west side of the lake about three miles from brewers. I have done both bottom bounced but I have caught more with jig and minnow in 6 to 15 feet of water, we are going out tomorrow Sunday I will post the results

Thanks Doyle! How close is sandy point to Brewers? You just dragging bottom bouncers for the Wallies or jigging?

everything is a okay at the lake, this late in the season launch at sandy point, will handle any boat size and since it has a central location easy, access to your fishing spots... walleye fishing is on fire right now .. be sure to post the results

What's the water level like now! Maybe going to head up for the first turkey weekend of the season!

Talking about jigs, I bought a jig called The Maurauder from a guy on gull. He makes them, and man do the work. Pike, walleye love them. I think he sells them on kijji. Feather jigs.

It is getting close to that time of year when lake turnover happens. This can really make fishing challenging.

Fished in Gull Lake Sept 5. Beautiful and calm lake. Didn’t catch any near Sandy point. Usually I caught at least a few. Only 2 fishing boat on the lake. The other boat didn’t catch any either after a few hours. A bit disappointed. Not too many fish on the fish finder. Went to the east side of the lake. Saw a lot of fish on the fish finder but they are not biting. Will be back again.

the actual color for the pigeon lake jig special is described as "parrot" by the manufacture Whizkers ... not p-e-a-c-o-ck

--almost any jig will work in Gull, but this one jig out fishes others in the boat maybe 2 to 1__-- it all started many years ago when I bought these jigs from the "Buck lake Hardware", after a tip from "Buck Lake Bob"__-- was used in Buck first, than to Pigeon and now Gull__-- these jigs are hard to find, and they are made by "Whizkas"__-- we use the 1/4 and 3/8 depending on the situation__-- I believe the color is called "P-E-A-C-O-C-K", bright blue w/ chartreuse on the nose of the jig and the belly__-- we also have success on the Whistlers and Thumper jigs, different colors, bronze in the Thumper seems best, made by Northlands, again in 1/4 and 3/8__-- lots already know, but just use a minnow, put on upside down on the jig, no need for any type of a rubberized jig body__-- I would post pictures, but the "ifish" site does not have that feature yet__-- had to spell the color differently since the site said it was offensive ... __-- need to know more, just ask __thanks doyle

What is a Pigeon Lake jig? Thanks

was out again on Saturday the 24th, fish count 135, finally went to a different spot, Stoner's Beach, rode out one hec of a hail/rain storm, again, the pigeon lake go to jig worked for everyone, fished in 12 to 15 feet of water, biggest was 60 cm weighing in at 3.9 pounds, fishing still is hot get out there and have some fun

Is there an area on shore or some sort of a marina /pier dock that I can take my 2.5 yr old fishing?

Don't hesitate to call the tips line when you see people poaching, fish and wildlife really appreciate it!! Thx for confronting them man, at the very least they know the real sportsman are watching and see what's going on!!

was out again on Saturday the 17th of August, fish count at 77, for the two of us, swore we were going to try other areas of the lake, but tough to move from a productive spot, fished from 3 to 8 .. with most the fish after 5, jig of the day, "pigeon lake special"

was out again on Saturday the 10th of August, had a hard time getting 60 fish, count stopped at 59, fished sandy point, and out in front of the sailing club ... sadly ... observed a boat putting walleye in a cooler without tagging, approached them at the ramp and the couple swear they were tagged ... next time it happens I am calling the toll free number ...

was out on Sunday the 4th of August, lost count after 100 walleye, between 2 guys, sandy point area, jig and minnow, ran out of minnows after 3 1/2 tubs, 85% were "b" size, handful of "c" and 1/2 dozen up to 60 cm ... off the lake at 4:00 PM .. great day is an understatement

Aug 1-14 walleye, 1 jack. All different sizes by Brownlows Landing

Out on Gull today, half dozen walleye ( a couple nice fatties ) which was good to see and a decent little poke.

Am looking to take the boat to Gull, wondering if the water level raised up a bit.

It was still closed last Monday. I put a call into Alberta Parks and they said they are looking at a solution. They have to do shoreline studies before doing any work so I don't anticipate it getting fixed anytime soon. Can see that other launch becoming a zoo as camping season begins.

Does anyone know if the beach side launch at aspen is still closed and if they are going to fix it or....?

I would like to take my son out on a little camping / pike fishing lake. Is this a worthwhile lake ? Are there better options near by ?

So you are all aware the pike limit is 0 not 3 over 63 like it says on here. Be sure to double check the regs.

What we call 3 mile point is the point immediately NE of Sandy Point RV Resort. We've always had good luck fishing the drop off there.

Where is 3 mile point?

At Aspen the launch on the beach side is closed and the one on the campground side is still open but in bad shape! Not sure why these launches haven,t been repaired before they get so bad they have to be closed?? Fishing was decent off 3 mile point managed to fill a couple of tags.

How's the north end launches? I know going thru sandy point is alittle rough.. 2 feet maybe.. looking for best option to launch. Thanks

Aspen is in, was hoping they would dig that launch out some more as it is super shallow, aside from the deeper hole right in the middle of the launch, it's maybe two feet around there at best.

Anyone know if the boat dock is in at Raymond Shores

I am going to try Aspen again tommorow the road going to lake was crappy last week ice was dodgy will probably walk out. There was 3 feet still last Thursday so I'm.hopeful!

Drove out, half ton 4x4

Did you drive on the ice or walk out?

Was at Sandy Point today, access was ok but is breaking down. Then went to brownlows and lots of flooded water about six inches deep on top at the entrance. Once your past it is ok but it is starting to get rutted up. Not sure about the north end.

Owner of the Parland Beach store, what's the ice like now? Any chance of getting on the ice for the last weekend?
