Fishing the Blue Lake Trophy System

Blue Fox Camp is located within the Little White River Provincial Park, which is designated as a fish sanctuary under the lands for life park system. The system consists of a network of 5 lakes (Blue/Kirkpatrick, Elbow, Whitebear, Robb and Townline) which all contain naturally reproducing rainbow, speckled/brook and lake trout. The natural reproduction of these three species of trout in one system is incredibly rare and limited to less than 1% of lakes in Canada. In addition to the natural stock in the main lake system, approximately 25 back lakes accessible from camp by ATV/Boat and walking, are included as part of a regular “world class” brook trout stocking program where +7 pound speckies are not uncommon.

Tips for Releasing fish

Back lakes are encouraged to be treated as catch and release to help support the fisheries

A couple of quick tips on releasing fish that will help increase the number of fish which survive the catch and release process:

Trout have a protective slime that covers their body, which acts as protection against cold and infection. When handling a caught trout, always use the rubber net provided and limit the amount of slime you remove by limiting the amount that you handle the fish with your hands.
When landing a fish, leave it in the net, take the hook out, pick him up by the tail and under the chin without sticking your fingers into the gills, take a picture and measurements. When you’re ready to release, place the fish into the water and hold the tail until the fish is ready to swim away.
If the fish is bleeding more than a little bit, keep him for the pan because he’s a goner.

Blue Fox Camp Mandate

At Blue Fox Camp, our mandate is to provide superior service while preserving the unique natural environment that embodies the Blue Lake system. We consider ourselves stewards of the unique Blue Lake System and are committed to the preservation of the natural resources that make this area so unique. All we ask is that you practice “selective” catch and release fishing.

While we understand that guests want to catch and eat fish, we encourage limiting what you keep. Fish over five pounds aren’t ideal for eating, and they play a crucial role in maintaining the lake’s fish population. By releasing these larger fish, we help ensure better fishing and more eaters in the future.
