FISHING AND HUNTING SASKATCHEWAN

Fishing: Saskatchewan's vast wilderness and nearly 100,000 lakes make it the perfect place for a memorable outdoor excursion. It is well-know for its abundant northern pike, fabulous bird hunting and trophy-sized deer-not to mention its excellent walleye, lake trout, Arctic Grayling fishing and big game hunting for black bear and moose. Whatever your interests, Saskatchewan is a great place to hunt, fish and relax.

Pike, walleye and perch are the most common species in southern Saskatchewan. Largemouth bass are found in Boundary Reservoir in southeast Saskatchewan and there are rock bass in the lower Qu'Appelle lakes, but the real action is found in the lakes of the northern region of the province.

Hunting: Saskatchewan is also blessed with some of North America's most abundant populations of wildlife. With large populations of geese, Hungarian partridge, ruffed grouse and the largest duck population on the continent - one out of every four ducks harvested in North America is produced in Saskatchewan! - the potential for bird hunting in the province is unbeatable. Saskatchewan is also a major flyway for migratory birds, providing exceptional waterfowl hunting each autumn. The sight of its wide-open skies full of endless soaring birds ensures a memorable hunting experience. The largest trophy white-tailed deer in the world live in our province, thanks to the minerals in fertile soil, abundant habitat, superior genetics and the northern climate. Moose and black bear also roam the forests in large numbers.
