Yellow Perch ice fishing in Manitoba

269 Manitoba lakes on this site have yellow perch on record, largest first. A lake without a record may still hold them: records come from provincial open data and our own research, and are not complete. Some records are stocking records, which show what a province has stocked, not everything in the lake.

General yellow perch tips

Yellow perch school over weed edges and basin flats; small jigs tipped with a minnow head or wax worm keep a steady bite, and when you find the school you can stay on it.

This is general guidance for the species, written by Ice Fish Canada, not a report from any one lake. Limits, size rules and closures vary by lake, so read the current Manitoba regulations before you fish. Measure the ice yourself: see the ice thickness guidance.
