About EAGLE LAKE

Although not quite five metres deep, Eagle Lake near Strathmore supports a reliable fishery for pike and walleye of decent size -5 lbs. or more.

As well, Eagle Lake was stocked with 7,5000 trout fry in 2014. Fly anglers can easily catch their limit. The lake is prone to sudden gusts, so be prepared if you're out on the water. Eagle Lake is rich in nutrients and undergoes dense blooms of blue-green algae through the summer months. Partly because of this and the shallow lake level, Eagle is preferred for its ice fishing rather than as a summer destination. Anglers report pulling up 20-40 pike per day. Fishing pressure, however, can be intense.

LAKE ACCESS

Follow Hwy. 1 east about 60 km from Calgary centre to Range Rd. 243 on the right side of the highway. The lake is 7 km from Strathmore. There is a recreation area, including boat launch, located roughly seven km from the turnoff on the right side of the road. The lake also has a commercial campsite on the east shore of the lake. Eagle Lake Resort offers full amenities.
