About Lac la Nonne

Walleye, pike, perch, whitefish and burbot are all caught in Lac La Nonne. Lac La Nonne is a tagged lake for walleye, which means that anglers need to win a special tag to allow for walleye fishing. iFish Alberta user Snoopster writes, “we caught [walleye by] trolling with a bottom bouncer and walleye rig with a worm. Beautiful day!” Perch are easy to catch in Lac La Nonne, and can provide a great introduction to angling. Northern pike are also big catches during the summer, as well as during the winter for ice fishing.

This well-developed lake is a great place to take the kids because it offers a variety of recreation on and off the water. Tributaries are closed to sport fishing for a designated period during April and May. Most of the lake is free of boating restrictions, but there are posted areas where boats are prohib- ited or where power boats have limited speeds of 12 km/hr. La Nonne means “the nun” in French, but the lake is believed to have been named for a duck, the white-winged scoter, known in England as a nun.

LAKE ACCESS

Follow Hwy. 16 west to Hwy. 43 and turn right. Continue along this road for nearly 25 km to Hwy. 33 at the town of Gunn. Turn right again. Lac La Nonne is located on the west side of the highway, about 25 km from the last turnoff. Access to the lake is via one of the side roads leading off the highway. Angler’s Atlas user shaggy99 recommends the “willow bend private boat launch. It costs $20 to put your boat in [but] it is the best launch on the lake and for those with larger boats, it is worth the $20.” Most of the lake’s access points are privately owned.

Payton and Paige caught there first fish ice fishing on a nice sunny day at lake Lac La Nonne. The girls had lots of fun and now they both like ice fishing. They were very happy the fish was put back in the water unharmed and it swam away.

Northern pike are also big catches during the summer, as well as during the winter for ice fishing. Angler’s Atlas member ChadBullock reports: “20 big perch on ice! My Dad and I had a killer day on the ice. For 45 minutes I couldn’t drop a hook without smacking a jumbo perch! The smallest one we caught on the day was 10 inches and the biggest was 15 inches! We let that big girl go! My greatest perch day of my young fishing career!” See his report, as well as others on the lake page for Lac La Nonne at anglersatlas.com.

Willow bend private boat launch, it costs $20 to put your boat in and take it out. It is the best launch on the lake and for those with larger boats, its worth the $20.
