• Tackle & Baits

  We hold no note on access for this one. Esker Lakes Provincial Park covers this ground, which means extra rules to check. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Look for a notice board at the entrance. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. If the gate is shut, Skelly Lake at 0.3 km is the nearest alternative. For Grover Lake, the notice at the access point is the final word.
