Longdens Lake, Manitoba: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Longdens Lake is one of the Manitoba waters in Manitoba. The surface lies 495 metres up. The water covers some 15 hectares, so pick a bank rather than trying to cover it all. The edge runs 2.5 km or so, easy to work in an afternoon. Our Manitoba list holds plenty of bigger water. Roblin sits 18 km from the bank. For a city, Regina is 232 km off. The boundary is near enough that local access rules are worth double-checking.

• Where to Fish on Longdens Lake

  There is no published depth for this one, so start shallow and work out. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. On Longdens Lake a short move beats a long cast. There are twenty within 25 km, rising to dozens at 50 km.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate records put July near 18°C and January near -19°C. Seasons are distinct, and each one fishes differently. Winter locks it down, and late April brings it back. Average temperatures cross freezing around late April in spring and again near mid November in autumn. Late spring and early autumn carry the year between them. At Longdens Lake the season follows that pattern closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. Nothing in the way of made access shows up nearby: no ramp, no car park, no path. Look for a notice board at the entrance. A polite question at the farm gate opens more banks than anything else. Lake of the Prairies at 4.2 km is the sensible second choice.
