The
historic English River flows past the Timberlane Lodge
cabins and provides our guests
with easy access to the main body of the lake...
and many guests find excellent fishing right at our
doorstep.
Walleye:
Walleye are plentiful throughout the entire lake and
draw fishermen who seek trophy walleye up to 14 pounds
in weight. There is a slot size limit on all game
species.
Northern
Pike: Although most of our guests come to
Timberlane Lodge for the excellent walleye fishing there
are good sized pike caught every year.
Lac Seul is
a 106,000 acre, crescent shaped lake in northwestern Ontario,
Canada. It is approximately 241 km (150 miles) long. It
has a maximum (regulated) depth of 47.2 m, with a
surface elevation of 357 m above sea level. It is the
second largest body of water entirely within the
province of Ontario. The lake consists of open water
bays, narrow channels, and islands. It is a relatively
shallow lake with many rock shoals. This provides a good
habitat for Walleye and Northern pike as well as Bass,
Perch, and in some areas of the lake Muskie are caught. Lac Seul is noted for offering some
of the best fishing in Ontario.
Lac Seul is located on the former lake bend of Glacial
Lake Agassiz. Due to this previous lake, much of the
bottom of Lac Seul is covered with thick deposits of
lacustrine silts and varved clay of varying thickness.
The water of Lac Seul is tea colored. In clear water
Walleye only feed at dusk and dawn because of their
light-sensitive eyes, but because of the tea color of
Lac Seul, it provides excellent Walleye and Northern
Pike angling opportunities throughout the day.
Lac Seul appreciates some of the finest trophy Northern
Pike and Walleye and also provides access to the vast,
practically untouched wilderness surrounding it.
The natural capacity of Lac Seul is augmented by the
diversion of water from the Albany River watershed,
allowing hydroelectric stations at Ear Falls where the
English River leaves the lake, and Manitou Falls, 30 km
downstream, to generate 90600 kW of electricity.
