Half Day & Full Day – Ice Fishing Experience

Yellowknife Sportfishing Adventure_Ice Fishing_2025_2

Join us on 1/2 Day and Full Day Ice Fishing Adventures for Northern Pike, Walleye and Whitefish on one of our local lakes, or match wits with a Trophy Lake Trout, Northern Pike or Inconnu on Great Slave Lake.

Catch the morning bite or sleep in and join us at lunch or wait until dark and jig for Burbot under the Northern Lights! Mix and Match your trips or combo it all up for an extended Full day multi-species Ice Fishing experience out on the ice. These trips are great for beginners and families, looking for a fun day on the ice, without the long hours of travel and being out in the cold after dark! Just be warned, Great Slave Lake is cold and remote and sometimes the fish don’t bite! But when they do come out to play, it’s spectacular! Our Walleye/Pike trips generally produce steady action throughout the day and are warmer locations with less wind. If your serious about catching a Big Fish, then Great Slave Lake is your best bet at catching a Trophy through the ice, but it can be cold and windy.
