April 6th is the Bill Bannock tournament on Clearwater and April 7th is the Flinty tournament at Bakers Narrrows. Athapap is a big lake so you kinda need to know where to go. Clearwater is a little easier but wide open. How you getting around on lakes?

I think your best bet would be Clearwater. Very easy access. With that tournament there you will see where all the holes were drilled. Something about near the “pump house” is all I have heard where to go to. Friends have fished it for big lakers and have been successful. I’ve only been to Wabishkok at end of March but it’s a bit to get at with a quad especially winter and 24” is size limit for any keepers. One only too!

I go up to Flin Flon at the end of March every year. Hopefully they don’t get heavy snow too early. I’ve been up there where slush was more prevalent than dry snow. Restricted us as to where we could or wanted to go. Weather for the most part has been good other than a bad day on Wobby last March. Wind picked up and we didn’t have a shack. We didn’t last long.
