About Bow Lake

Set in Saskatchewan, Canada, Bow Lake is a lake that holds the typical mix of warm-water and cool-water species you'd expect for the area. Anglers fishing Bow 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 Black bullhead

    Fish near the bottom in areas with structure like weeds or submerged logs, as black bullheads are bottom feeders that prefer cover.

  • For Lake char

    Target lake trout in deep, cold water during the summer months, focusing on areas with structure or drop-offs; use a fish finder to locate schools of fish and baitfish.

  • For Rainbow trout

    Vary your retrieve speed when using spinners to find what triggers a strike; sometimes a slow, steady retrieve works best, while other times a faster, erratic retrieve is more effective.
