A still, cloudless night on the water, with just enough N wind to ripple the surface and no real change in pressure. On Cavalary Lake, work bays that hold the day's warmth first. The day fishes best from the day. Pick two or three spots and rotate them. A properly cold day, so expect slow, deliberate fishing.

Cavalary Lake lies in Kenora District, in Ontario. The bank gives way to lake country bush. Roughly 88 hectares: a morning covers one end, an afternoon the other. There is roughly 22 km of bank, more than one visit can cover properly. Lac du Bonnet sits 75 km from the bank. It is 162 km to Winnipeg, the nearest city. It sits well inside the county, so one set of rules covers it.
Our records hold no depth for this water. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Public occurrence data for Kenora District names northern pike, longnose sucker, white sucker and johnny darter. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. At Cavalary Lake light and wind decide more than tackle does.
Averages here run 19°C at the top of summer and -19°C at the bottom of winter. The year splits cleanly: hard water, then open water. Firm cover through the cold months, then open water from late April. In an average year the thaw lands around late April and the freeze near mid November. Late spring and early autumn carry the year between them. Cavalary Lake runs to its own calendar within the local pattern.
Nothing in our records says who may fish here. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. Formal access is not mapped, so the last stretch is likely on foot. For the pike, wire up and throw larger lures along the weed edges. Check locally before you travel, because a wasted drive is a long one. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. Worthington Lake sits 3.6 km off and takes the overflow. The position on Cavalary Lake is worth confirming on the day.
