Limited Lake Fishing in Kenora District, Ontario

• Overview

  In Ontario, Limited Lake belongs to Kenora District. It stands 362 metres above sea level. The water covers some 66 hectares, so pick a bank rather than trying to cover it all. At about 6.8 km of edge, most people work one arm at a time. For supplies, Sioux Lookout is 5.7 km out. Thunder Bay sits 276 km out, and it is the nearest city worth the name. No boundary runs near, so the local rules hold throughout.

• Where to Fish on Limited Lake

  Nothing we hold settles how deep this runs. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Species logged across Kenora District include northern pike, longnose sucker, white sucker and johnny darter. Take it as the county picture rather than a promise for this water. On Limited Lake a short move beats a long cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The seasonal spread runs -18°C to 18°C. Hard water is a season in its own right here. Break-up comes around late April, and the run that follows is short and strong. Averages suggest open water from about late April through to roughly mid November. Spring is short and heavy here; autumn is longer and steadier. It holds true on Limited Lake more years than not.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public sources are silent on who controls the bank. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. No car park, ramp or path is recorded within easy reach of the shore. A wire trace and a big bright lure handle the pike; deep water asks for a heavier spoon. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. If the gate is shut, Bonnet Lake at 1.8 km is the nearest alternative. Confirm before you fish Limited Lake.
