Manitoba is no stranger to the growing ‘ice fishing revolution’, nor to the world class ice fisheries that annually entice thousands of fanatical ice anglers.
Our cold winters are a gateway to unreal ice fishing opportunities, offering favorable access to numerous lakes and rivers and a wide variety of trophy species. Yellow perch, northern pike, lake trout, greenback walleye, rainbow trout, and black crappie are all popular choices for our loyal ice anglers, as are the remote back country and easily accessible fisheries that Manitoba offers in abundance.
December through April, our hard water world presents options for everyone. From an easy, do-it-yourself family trip to a local trout lake to a full service guided adventure on the remote limits of our inland oceans, Manitoba presents an open door to epic ice fishing experiences.
