Great Slave Lake Ice Fishing Trip

Enjoy a unique experience on your Canada holiday with a fishing trip on the icy waters of the Great Slave Lake, an opportunity to engage in traditional activities of the Northwest Territories.

Great Slave Lake Ice Fishing Trip

We will pick you up at your hotel in Yellowknife at 11 am and head to the shores of Great Slave Lake, the second-largest lake in the Northwest Territories and the deepest in North America at 2,000 feet. This location is ideal for ice fishing.

After a brief presentation on equipment use, you can relax in the tents while waiting for fish to bite. Patience is essential for successful ice fishing.

During the experience, you will learn about various fish species in Great Slave Lake, including salmon, rainbow trout, and pike. The activity concludes with a light lunch, where you can taste some of the fish caught, paired with hot drinks.

We will return to your hotel in Yellowknife around 3 pm.

Fishing Licence

Before participating, you must purchase a fishing license for the Northwest Territories, which can be obtained through a designated link. The permit fee ranges from 10CAD to 30CAD, depending on nationality and the season of your visit. Alternatively, you can buy this license on the day of the tour; payment is by credit card only.
