Canada is the dream destination for people interested in fishing, as its rivers and lakes are the perfect grounds for fish to live in and breed. A great variety of breeds are available across the country, ranging from salmon to halibut and everything in between. Each province in Canada has rich fishing areas that double-up as family vacation destinations.
Nungesser Lake, Ontario
Located in the northwestern part of Ontario, Lake Nungesser is a pristine body of dark water lake that houses massive walleye and trophy pike. It has some of the largest and heaviest walleye in the world and some of them can even weigh more than 12 lb. Most Pikes are 52 inches long and can weigh anywhere between 25 to 35lb. Also, walleye and trophy pike thrive well in these waters—it is common for visitors to get up to a hundred fish on any given day. Besides the fishing grounds, the natural beauty of this place and the remote wilderness makes for an ideal family outing.
Nunavut region
The Nunavut region of Canada offers a unique fishing experience and is perfect for someone looking to fish in solitude amidst unspoiled wilderness. The Ennadai Lake, Angikuni Lake and the Kazan River are located in the southwestern part of Nunavut and they are some of the most serene places in Canada. The species that inhabit this region are the lake trout, northern pike, arctic grayling and the arctic char. Many of these fish weigh more than thirty pounds, which, no doubt, gives a sense of pride and satisfaction for the fishing enthusiasts. There are many lodges and resorts surrounding these lakes and travelers can fly in for a day of fishing or stay here for weeks together to enjoy the untouched beauty of Nunavut.
These fishing grounds are a small sample of what Canada has to offer for the fishing-lovers. It is a fish paradise and numerous varieties thrive on the rich glacial waters of the lakes, rivers and bays that abound in Canada. It is the perfect place for a family vacation that may include a fishing expedition, hiking or camping in the nearby wilderness.
