Post South side Edmonton Hunting and Fishing?

For anyone that has any information
I just moved to Edmonton, and am looking for dirt roads/trails to hunt partridge, areas to hunt deer, and good lakes to fish in.
Specific locations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Not sure how this forum works, so I guess reply or message me or email me at caitlinfinch08@hotmail.com. Thanks again

Getting hunting permission close to Edmonton is a struggle....even for folks who have lived here their whole lives.

For that reason I expect you to get few replies to your ad...but don't fret, if you do some homework and knock on some doors you just might get lucky.

Good luck!

How would I know which county office? I don't know anything on hunting rules out here, as you can pretty much hunt anywhere in ontario that you can find.

Best way to educate yourself is to pick up the hunting regulations and read thru them. You can pick these up readily at any Canadian Tire. Will take honess of your time to educate yourself first hand. Then you will nned to do the leg work to get permission on private land, otherwise best to call local Parks division on hunting in provincial parks and protected areas. edm 780-427-3582.

As far as fishing, many fishing stores have updates on certain lakes that may be fishing good. As far as anyones honey holes, most lips are sealed. You cant go wrong with fishing Pigeon Lake for walleye/pike. Inside the fishing regs you will also not what lakes or ponds are stocked.

I've got all the regulation books for hunting and fishing, just wish it would tell me exactly where to hunt what. For example, partridge hunting is a yearly thing for me, and I have no idea where to go or even where to go to "ask". The whole asking thing is new to me.
I tried wabamun lake, caught one pike by the bridge - would you know if that lake is good for fishing in a boat?
