Ice Fishing on Smith Lake
What you're signing up for
Smith Lake is a small, productive water body just north of Kalispell that ices up early and stays good all winter. Yellow perch and northern pike are the stars — perfect for a family ice-fishing day where everyone catches fish, even the kids new to ice. Easy access, less driving, and the heated shelter keeps it comfortable.
