Good. Another aerated lake. Opens early and starts fast. I got caught in drifting ice flows a few years back. I had to break ice with my rod butt. No way to treat an Orvis. Fishing was great though.

Water quality is surprising good, even in the summer! The Rainbows and Browns are plentiful, and catchable, once you learn what they are feeding on.
This is a real pothole (small in size, round, and quite deep--and a wonderful place to spend the day. No gas motors--the lake is too small!
This lake is past its prime as a big fish producer but ther are plenty of respectacle trout hiding in this little gem.

Pond is just off main lake. Not much to look at but a great pond for the flyfisher. Very little backcast hazards. Suprisingly large fish can be caught. This is the lake to take that wannabe flyfisher for a casting lesson or two. Frustration factor is low and there are fish everwhere.

Spring:
River will often be flooded out
Summer:

Winter:
Winter logging road frequently graded, subject to lots of snow and industrial traffic all year.
Quod and Skidoo area. |
Location:
Approx 40 km south of 2 Lakes Campground. 170 km from Grande Prairie
Access Point:
Gravel road ends in picnic area.
Camping at Kakwa Falls not permitted.
Alcohol of any kind is prohibited past the Two Lakes Campsite.
Kakwa Falls and river accessible down a very steep bank.
KM from GP:
170
Road Conditions:
Gravelled road crosses Lick and other creeks at least 4 times, and barely skirts a lake.
While only 40 km from Two Lakes Campground, this stretch of road can be challenging. 18 inch deep ruts and flooded muddy sections.
The river crossing can be tricky.
Best in late summer/fall when creeks are low.
4 wheel drive and high clearance necessary. Take a good spare, winch and tow rope.
Getting a rescue tow out will be v expensive.
Best Time of Year:
Fall
|
Incredible views and scenery.
Wildlife can be plentiful.
Many choose to drive their vehicles to Sherman Meadows and use a quod for the remaining 20 k. Seriously.

Kakwa River Hiway 40 ( to Grande Cache) |
Species:
Rainbows, Grayling, Rockies, Bull Trout |
Spring:
Depends on the mountain runoff. If spring is delayed you can catch some fine fishing before it blows out. Season doesn't open until June.
Summer:
Again it is weather dependant. This river has a sizable watershed. Real good if water is clear.
Fall:
Usually the most dependable & easiest fishing is in the fall. Water levels should be low & clear.

Very good. One of the first lakes in our region to open up and become ice free. Prolific Insect hatches.

Can be good depending on weather. Warm water temperatures can be problematic. In hot weather bring your swim trunks.

Good I am told. This Lake is aerated during the winter. Watch for thin ice especially around aeration units. Ice NOT recommended for vehicle traffic. |
