• Where to Fish on Leak Creek

  Depth remains unrecorded, so treat the first session as a survey. Wading opens water that no bank angler reaches. Gravel runs and silted pools fish quite differently, so treat them apart. Fish documented in Kelsey include white sucker, johnny darter, northern pike, walleye and silver redhorse. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. At Leak Creek the first feature you find is worth twenty minutes.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July near 17°C and January near -22°C on the long-run figures. Seasons are distinct, and each one fishes differently. Cold months ice the margins and pools; moving water stays workable, and everything opens by early May. Average temperatures cross freezing around early May in spring and again near early November in autumn. The middle of summer slows a little, with dawn and dusk carrying it. Plan any trip to Leak Creek around it.
