Ace Lake Fishing Guide, Manitoba, Manitoba

• Overview

  Ace Lake is listed under Manitoba. It stands 360 metres above sea level. At 9 hectares it is the sort of place you fish for an evening rather than a day. It is one of the smaller waters we list in Manitoba. Start from Pelican Narrows, 212 km down the road. Snow Lake is 219 km and Flin Flon 228 km. Water in the same corner: Dutton Lake after 1.7 km, Lost Lake 1.8 km, Franklin Lake after 2.2 km, Maynard Lake 2.3 km and Ken Lake after 2.4 km. No border sits close enough to matter.

• Where to Fish on Ace Lake

  Our records carry no depth, so judge it from the bank. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Ace Lake gives up its fish to patience rather than distance. Counting the whole county, there are hundreds.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from -25°C in January up to 16°C in July. The window is narrow, and fish feed hard while it lasts. Count on hard cover from midwinter, and open water from mid May. The water is typically free of ice between mid May and early November. June through September is the settled part of the year, with the shoulders busier for fish. On Ace Lake the same rules apply, with local timing.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. Nothing is mapped in the way of a ramp or car park within a short radius. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Keep proof of licence with you rather than in the car. Dutton Lake at 1.7 km is the sensible second choice. Nothing on Ace Lake should be assumed from this page alone.
