Name’s Artificial Lure, checking in with your Great Bear Lake fishing report from way up here in the Sahtu. Out on the big water today, we’re under a cool, stable early‑summer pattern: light to moderate northwest breeze, cool mornings down close to single digits Celsius, afternoons pushing into the mid‑teens. Skies are a mix of sun and high cloud, with only a slight chance of a brief shower. The barometer is steady, which usually keeps the fish predictable. Sunrise is just after 3 a.m., sunset close to 11:30 p.m., so you’ve got a huge window to work the best bites at low light. No tides to worry about on this inland inland sea, but wind does stack water on windward shorelines, and those wind‑blown points and gravel bars are where the groceries collect. That’s where the lake trout and whitefish have been cruising, and the big pike aren’t far behind. Local lodge chatter from guides around the Dease Arm and McTavish Arm has been strong the last few days. Boats running medium‑deep structure in 40–80 feet are putting 20–40 lake trout in the net on a good outing, with several fish in the 15–25‑pound range and the odd true trophy pushing past 30. Up shallow, especially in warmer back bays and river mouths, pike in the 30–40‑inch class are showing up regularly, with enough mid‑40s to keep things interesting. For lakers, spoons are still king. Think big, fluttery silver‑and‑blue or silver‑and‑green spoons, 3–5 inches, trolled slow with a long line and, if you’ve got it, lead core or downriggers to stay near bottom. White tube jigs tipped with a strip of belly meat or a scented soft plastic are another steady producer when you’re vertical‑jigging humps and drops. Keep your cadence lazy and let that tube hover just off bottom. Pike anglers want noisy and flashy in the stained, warmer pockets: black and red spinnerbaits, nickel or copper in‑line spinners, big soft jerkbaits in white or perch patterns. Over the darker rock and sand, chartreuse and fire‑tiger crankbaits are doing damage. If you’re a bait fan and regulations allow, a herring or cisco on a quick‑strike rig, set under a float along weed edges, is hard to beat for the heavy girls. A couple of local hot spots to circle on your map: – The mouths of the Dease River and nearby bays have been kicking out numbers of mid‑size lakers and some chunky pike in that midday lull when the main lake slows down. – The reefs and points off McGill Bay have produced several big trout lately for folks trolling the contour edges, especially when the wind’s pushing in and roughing things up a bit. Best windows: very early and very late in the day for shallow pike and cruising lakers up on top, then slide deeper once the sun gets high. When the wind lays right down, switch to more natural colors and slow your presentation; when it’s choppy, go bigger, brighter, and louder. That’s the word from Great Bear.
