This is the best month to go ice fishing. There’s an abundance of lakes to choose from, and the ice is usually very thick in the middle of winter. Walleye, Trout, Northern Pike, and Whitefish are all in the cards.

Spend a weekend on Lake Winnipeg and book a couple of ice fishing expeditions while you’re there. This is your chance to catch a big Greenback Walleye and bring it home for dinner.

March is the period “in-between,” when ice fishing is slowing down, but it’s not warm enough for regular fishing. Still, ice will stay thick in the Northern Region, so why not go and explore?

If you're in the north, have one last hurrah on the ice before getting ready for the open water season. The ice still holds on certain lakes, so you can seek them out and target Walleye, Trout, and Pike.

The open water season is officially open! Whatever you’d like to hook, now's the time. Choose your lake and, depending on where you are, catch anything from Pike and Bass to Catfish and Perch.

It’s nice and warm in June, and the bite is hot! Visit one of Manitoba's provincial parks and the lakes in them to chase Rainbow, Brook, Tiger, and Brown Trout. Pike and Walleye will be biting as well.

July is one of the best months for fly fishing, especially if you go to the Parkland Region. Here, you’ll find a lot of pristine streams and lakes surrounded by woods and mountains, perfect for some top-notch Trout fishing.

It’s hard to pick just one place in Manitoba, so why not explore a whole area? The Interlake Region boasts outstanding fisheries like Lakes Manitoba, Winnipegosis, and Winnipeg, all known for their variety and productivity.

The beginning of fall is a good time to explore the Central Region with its beautiful, productive rivers. In most places, you can expect Perch, Crappie, Bass, Carp, and Walleye at the end of your line.

It’s getting colder outside, which means you better dress up well before you hop aboard for a day of fishing. Your prey might be bite-shy at this time of year, but Walleye and Pike are still as hungry as ever.

Take a deep breath as the temperatures drop and reel in a few more fish before the ice starts to settle in. Very soon, the time will come to drill the first holes in the new ice and drop your line for your own trophy Walleye.

Spend several hours on the ice and fill your cooler with delicious fish like Greenback Walleye and Perch. There’s nothing like a hearty dinner to warm you up after an exciting but cold day outside.
