The species

Four reasons the winter is never slow

Each species has its prime window — a full day often means chasing more than one.

Rainbow Trout

Nov–Dec · Mar–Apr

Active all winter and best fished early and late in the season. Consistent action and strong fights — ideal for every skill level.

Lake Trout (Char)

Dec–Apr

Powerful predators with real trophy potential, on the bite through the whole ice season. A rewarding challenge for anglers chasing size.

Kokanee

Dec–Feb

Fast-paced action with frequent bites through early and mid-winter. Perfect for numbers, a social day on the ice, and great table fare.

Burbot

Feb–Mar

Prime in mid to late winter, especially in the evenings. A unique, aggressive species that feeds actively under the ice — and eats even better.

Frequently asked questions

What are my chances of catching a fish?

Extremely high on most trips — it is rare for anyone to leave without catching something. Your guide knows the local waters and uses proven techniques to put you in the best position. Fishing is still fishing, not catching, but the odds are about as close as it gets.

Can we keep our catch?

Most ice trips allow retention, and your guide will help with limits, handling, and fish care. Retention depends on the fishery and current regulations — some fisheries are catch and release.

Is the ice safe?

Yes. Trips only run when ice conditions are safe, and thickness is monitored regularly through the season. If conditions are not right, your trip is rescheduled or refunded in full.

What should I bring?

Warm layered clothing, winter boots, gloves, and a hat. All fishing gear and equipment is provided — and if you need to borrow something warm, just ask.

Do I need experience? Can kids come?

No experience needed — trips are tailored to every skill level, with as much guidance or independence as you like. Trips are family friendly and open to all ages.

What if the weather turns?

Conditions are monitored closely. Heated shelters keep you comfortable when it is cold, and if conditions ever become unsafe, the trip is rescheduled or refunded — safety first, always.
