Comstock Lake Fishing Guide, Manitoba, Manitoba

• Overview

  The Manitoba end of Manitoba holds Comstock Lake. What surrounds it is lake country bush. The water measures roughly 9 hectares, so nothing here is far from anything else. It is a small entry by Manitoba standards. The town to know is Lac du Bonnet, 56 km out. Kenora is 79 km and Beausejour 91 km. The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Comstock Lake

  Our records hold no depth for this water. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. On Comstock Lake the obvious spot is not always the productive one. Bright sun pushes fish under whatever cover exists.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warmest month averages 19°C, the coldest about -19°C. The freeze arrives properly here and holds. After late April the shallows warm and the fish move up. Ice usually gives way near late April, and forms again about mid November. The first weeks of open water and the last are the ones to plan for. Plan any trip to Comstock Lake around it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public sources are silent on who controls the bank. The map shows no ramp or car park nearby, so this is a walk-in water. Where a permit is needed, the nearest town usually sells it. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Kellie Lake sits 1.4 km off and takes the overflow. Treat access at Comstock Lake as something to verify.
