Noel Love Lake Fishing Guide, Kenora District, Ontario

• Overview

  Set in Kenora District, Ontario, this is Noel Love Lake. The surface lies 395 metres up. The water covers around 1.66 sq km, which puts most of it out of reach from the bank. Shoreline length is close to 7.0 km, and each section fishes a little differently. Nearest town is Sioux Lookout, 52 km off. The nearest city of size is Thunder Bay, 319 km away. No boundary runs near, so the local rules hold throughout.

• Where to Fish on Noel Love Lake

  Depth figures are not published for this one. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Kenora District records list northern pike, longnose sucker and white sucker among the fish reported. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. Noel Love Lake gives up more to patience than to distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warmest month averages 18°C, the coldest about -19°C. The year runs cold to warm and back, with clear transitions. The lid usually sets by midwinter and gives way around late April. From about late April to around mid November, expect open water on the long-run figures. Early summer and early autumn carry the open-water season. At Noel Love Lake the season follows that pattern closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  We hold no note on access for this one. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. Public data shows nothing built here, so treat the whole approach as informal. For the pike, wire up and throw larger lures along the weed edges. Look for a notice board at the entrance. Where parking is tight, arriving early solves most problems. Failing this one, try Aerial Lake, 3.8 km away. Check the position at Noel Love Lake before loading the car.
