Fishing The Beaver Pond in Reynolds, Manitoba

• Overview

  The Reynolds end of Manitoba holds The Beaver Pond. The ground round it is rolling bush. Surface area runs to about 7 hectares — small enough to read in one session. Most waters listed here for Reynolds are larger. The nearest town is Kenora, 61 km away. After that come Lac du Bonnet at 67 km and Moose Lake at 75 km. The nearest boundary is a fair way off.

• Where to Fish on The Beaver Pond

  Depth figures are not published for this one. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Open biodiversity records for Reynolds list northern pike, walleye and yellow perch. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. The Beaver Pond gives up its fish to patience rather than distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from -19°C in January up to 19°C in July. Four clear seasons, with a proper winter at one end. Expect a solid lid for months and a thaw around late April. Going by climate averages, expect open water from about late April until roughly mid November. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. On The Beaver Pond that shapes the whole year.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public data does not answer the access question here. Nothing formal is recorded here: no ramp, no car park, no marked path. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. The nearest alternative is Alberts Lake, 0.8 km out. Nothing here settles the position at The Beaver Pond for certain.
