Fishing Westman and the Pembina Valley by RV

Walleye, pike and perch on Pelican and Killarney lakes and the Assiniboine River, and the RV parks near each.

Regulation links last checked October 2026.

In short. These are prairie lakes and rivers, so conditions change with water levels. Check the province's Lake Information for Anglers tool for the lake you pick. Fresh water here needs a Manitoba licence.

Rules change. Seasons, closures and limits change often and can change mid-season. We link to the official pages rather than repeat them, so check them before every trip.
