Ice fishing trip ideas
Hi there,
My wife's parents gave us a $500.00 gift to go fishing on our honeymoon. Unfortunately, our trip was canceled due to weather. Does anyone have any recommendations for an ice fishing trip within three hours of Lethbridge? I have all of the necessary equipment, just need a suggestion for a place to stay and a decent lake nearby. Scenery and fishing quality are of equal value. Budget is $500.00. Any recommendations are much appreciated! |
Think Montana. Haven’t got a specific place but maybe someone will come up with a spot/place within your limitation from Lethbridge
|
Shoot me a PM there a are a couple really good options within 3 hours of you!

Adventure Ice Fishing has nice shacks on Gull Lake just outside Red Deer. They have a couple overnight shacks that look very comfy.

I just saw on Facebook the other day a guy advertising ice cabins on Last Mountain Lake....might be more than 3 hours but would be worth it.

You’re going fishin for your honeymoon? Wow you hooked a good one there!!! But seriously someone mentioned Montana. I would stay in whitefish and make the drive to Flathead lake. Whitefish is dirt cheep as far as lodging and meals go so the savings in that should outweigh the license costs. It’s also an amazing and romantic town if you’ve never been there. This way you have the fishing and you also get to stay in a nice little mountain town for your honeymoon. Flathead has a late freeze up though so you would have to go later in the year. There’s also guides you can hire out there but that would probably put you above budget.

I think we're going to rent a cabin through goatmountain.ca. Stay two nights and fish two of Beaver Mines, Beauvais and Butcher. |

A late idea. For walleye, big whitefish and the odd big pike... At Pigeon Lake SW of Edmonton there is a very secluded cabin nestled in the trees a few yards from the water. Indoor wood fireplace. 150.00 a night. Only it is further from Lethbridge. Paved all the way. Battle lake is 10 minutes from the cabin too. Fine dining and everything a person needs is 10 miles away at the Village on the Lake.
Pm me if you're interested in knowing more. |
