Ginter Lake Fishing Guide, Manitoba, Manitoba

• Overview

  This water sits in Manitoba. The bank is 259 metres above sea level. At 1.15 sq km this is proper open water rather than a pond. Shoreline length is close to 5.3 km, and each section fishes a little differently. Thompson is the closest place, 158 km off. Saskatoon is the closest city, 665 km away. One jurisdiction covers this water end to end.

• Where to Fish on Ginter Lake

  The records we hold are silent on depth, so plan to find it yourself. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Work Ginter Lake in sections rather than trying to cover it. The last hour before dark is rarely wasted.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July to average close to 16°C, with January the cold end at about -25°C. A short, intense season is the rule this far north. The open season starts with the thaw, near enough mid May. Open water usually runs from mid May until about early November. Right after break-up, and again as the nights sharpen, is when to go. Keep it in mind when planning a trip to Ginter Lake.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access is not recorded for this water. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. Public mapping marks it as seasonal water rather than permanent. No made access is recorded, so a short walk in is the likely arrangement. Parking space is the usual limit rather than the bank itself. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. Fuller Lake sits 2.2 km off and takes the overflow. Ask locally about Ginter Lake if anything is unclear.
