Fishing near Regina, Saskatchewan

Regina sits on the open prairie of southern Saskatchewan, and while the city itself borders Wascana Lake and Wascana Creek, the real draw for anglers is the ring of productive lakes and rivers within an hour's drive. The Qu'Appelle chain — Echo, Pasqua, Mission, and Fishing lakes — Last Mountain Lake, and Buffalo Pound Lake are the marquee destinations, known for walleye, northern pike, and perch through both open water and ice.
