About Pelican Lake

Tucked into Ontario, Canada, Pelican Lake is a lake that fishes differently season to season. Spring brings fish into the shallows to spawn or feed on early baitfish; midsummer pushes them to cooler, deeper water; autumn turns them aggressive again as they pack on weight before winter. Anglers planning a trip to Pelican Lake should check water temperature and recent weather — a sudden cold front can shut a lake like this down for a day.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Walleye

    Focus your efforts around dawn and dusk, as walleye are typically more active during these low-light periods; use a slow, deliberate retrieve, as walleye often prefer a subtle presentation.

  • For Northern pike

    Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.

  • For Smallmouth bass

    Focus your fishing efforts around rocky structures, ledges, and areas with current, as smallmouth bass prefer these habitats.
