Soft grey light all day today, with a soft ESE wind and the barometer holding steady. On Flux Lake, work the shallows early and the drop later first. If you pick one session, make it the evening. Cover water early, then settle where the signs are. Biting air and slow fish: small baits, long pauses.

Flux Lake is one of the Manitoba waters in Manitoba. Elevation runs to 335 metres. At about 44 hectares, a day is enough to walk the shoreline properly. Shoreline comes to about 4.7 km, small enough to learn in a day. The closest town, Flin Flon, is 18 km distant. The big place round here is Saskatoon, 449 km distant. This one is safely inside the county line.
There is no published depth for this one, so start shallow and work out. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. On Flux Lake the quiet end is the one worth the extra effort. A quiet approach matters most in shallow water.
The warmest month averages 17°C, the coldest about -22°C. Cold winters and warm summers give a wide working range. Ice is part of the season here, ending near early May. The lid tends to go about early May and return around early November. The middle of summer slows a little, with dawn and dusk carrying it. On Flux Lake that shapes the whole year.
Nothing in our records says who may fish here. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. No car park, ramp or path is recorded within easy reach of the shore. Check locally before you travel, because a wasted drive is a long one. Some ground is open by custom rather than by right, so tread carefully. Bluenose Lake sits 1.7 km off and takes the overflow. None of that is settled for Flux Lake in what we hold.
