• Where to Fish on Petit lac Tasiguluk

  No figure exists for depth, so let the water show you. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. County-wide records name Arctic charr, Pacific cod, brook trout, lake trout and lake whitefish. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. Petit lac Tasiguluk gives up more to patience than to distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The seasonal spread runs -23°C to 12°C. Open water arrives late and leaves early, which concentrates the fishing. Once it clears, about early June, the fishing comes on quickly. From about early June to around early November, expect open water on the long-run figures. Right after break-up, and again as the nights sharpen, is when to go. It holds true on Petit lac Tasiguluk more years than not.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access is not recorded for this water. Nothing built is recorded close to the bank here. For the trout, small spinners and a box of nymphs cover both approaches. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here.
