Cooks Creek is a stream located in Manitoba, Canada, flowing into the Red River near East Selkirk. The creek offers a diverse freshwater fishery in a scenic riparian corridor, with navigable water that attracts both boaters and anglers. The lower reaches near the confluence with the Red River are particularly productive, and the creek widens noticeably approximately 3 kilometers upstream from the mouth, creating a broader, shallower basin that provides varied habitat for multiple species. The surrounding environment is rich with wildlife, including beavers, blue herons, and waterfowl, making it an enjoyable destination beyond just the fishing itself.
