Battle Lake is located about 50 km west of Wetaskiwan on HWY 13 between
Falun and Winfield. It is a long skinny lake that produces Pike, Pickeral,
and Whitefish. None of these fish are can be classified as lunkers, but some
Pike do grow to be 10 pounds and Whitefish grow up to 5 pounds. The Walleye in
this lake was last stocked in 1993 and is reported to be adapting well. The
best place to fish this lake is the South east end of the lake that forms
the Battle River. Fish the mouth of the river where all the weeds are with a
5 of diamonds or a weedless jig or spoon. If it's Whitefish your after, go
closer to the center of the lake, but fish no deeper than 20 feet, use a #8
snelled hook with maggots or worms, possibly Berkly Power Eggs depending on
the time of the year. To catch the Walleye or Pike use a minnow replica,
flatfish, or a medium sized spoon. There is a boat launch, but the speed
limit on the lake is 12km/hr.
