Greenlaws Lake Fishing Guide, Rosedale, Manitoba

• Overview

  Look for Greenlaws Lake in the Rosedale part of Manitoba. The setting is lake country bush on every side. Small at around 10 hectares: two anglers spread out cover most of it. Minnedosa at 19 km is the nearest place to stop. Neepawa is 37 km and Rivers 49 km. Water in the same corner: Hilliards Lake (2.2 km), Londrys Lake a touch under 2.4 km, Elsie Lake (3.1 km), Munros Lake a touch under 3.5 km and Harts Lake (3.7 km). One jurisdiction covers this water end to end.

• Where to Fish on Greenlaws Lake

  No figure exists for depth, so let the water show you. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. County-wide records name white sucker, northern pike and yellow perch. County data is a starting point rather than a guarantee. The shape of Greenlaws Lake decides where the fish sit.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Long-term averages put July at about 18°C and January near -19°C. Cold locks it up for a good stretch each year. Once it clears, about late April, the fishing comes on quickly. The lid tends to go about late April and return around mid November. The strongest runs come at either end of the open season. Keep it in mind when planning a trip to Greenlaws Lake.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. Mapped as intermittent, it fills after rain and shrinks between. Public data shows nothing built here, so treat the whole approach as informal. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Provincial rules still apply whatever the bank status. Close seasons apply to some species and not others. Failing this one, try Hilliards Lake, 2.2 km away. For Greenlaws Lake in particular, ask before you travel.
