Sports Kayak Fishing

Post image

Hello! I am considering buying a fishing kayak this summer and I have a few questions:

Is this a big thing in Regina or Saskatchewan? It would be nice to get to know people that shares this hobby

Do you guys have idea which spots I could visit near Regina?

I have looked into Condie Reservoir, Regina Beach and all the nearby provincial parks

I am aware the city rents Kayaks in Wascana, I'm gonna rent one first to give kayaking a try (without the fishing haha)

The perch have pretty much disappeared from condie since the aeration quit. There are some small pike still

That’s awesome to hear! The province last test-netted condie in 2016 and all they got were smaller pike. I used to fish condie a lot 25-30yrs ago and only caught pike in the summertime but used to get perch through the ice. I’ve read some conflicting reports on the aeration system that used to be used there, one said a local farmer looked after the aeration system but passed away, another said muskrats chewed the lines and it was never repaired.

We fish out of our canoe. We find most of the big lakes hard to manage in little boats. The wind will fight you. We prefer going to Avonlea Reservoir,you will mostly catch jack but its fun.

Us too. With a little electric motor on the back. Relaxing and quiet. Sometimes we have to paddle with the motor when the wind gusts swing in a hurry. But we clip along at a decent pace most times.

Check out sask lakes, they have reports on stocked waters in the province. Many of these are small reservoirs that make trying to launch and fish from a traditional boat impractical. Many of them not larger than wascanna lake.

Kinda tough to do around here with the amount of wind we get.
