Victoria Lake

Set in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, Victoria Lake is a lake that holds the typical mix of warm-water and cool-water species you'd expect for the area. Anglers fishing Victoria Lake usually focus their effort on transitions: the edges of weed beds, points that stick out into deeper water, and the shaded sides of any inflow. Early morning and the last hour of light tend to be the most productive windows on a body of water this size.

Fishing Techniques

• For Brook trout

  Fish upstream, casting into pools and runs, allowing your bait or lure to drift naturally with the current for best results.

• For Brown trout

  When fishing streams, focus on seams and current breaks, where trout hold to ambush prey.

• For Atlantic cod

  When using jigs, impart a strong vertical jigging action close to the sea floor, pausing occasionally to entice strikes.
