Beaverhill Lake

Beaverhill Lake sits in Alberta, Canada and offers the kind of structure-driven lake fishing that suits both bank anglers and those working from a small boat or float tube. Fish on a stillwater like this don't move much during the heat of the day — finding shade, cooler thermoclines, or current from inflowing streams is the local trick. Most successful trips to Beaverhill Lake come down to reading the water before tying on a lure.

Fishing Techniques

• For Northern pike

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

• 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.

• 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.
