Little Nesslin Lake

Little Nesslin Lake is a small paddling and fishing lake located 18km NE of Big River. The lake is a really quiet, beautiful spot, and a great paddling destination with a few different bays to explore.

There is no road access to the lake, I portaged the small creek from Swede Lake to access Little Nesslin Lake. There is a hiking trail into the lake as well but I haven't been on it, several boats have been left at the end of the trail.

Walleye, Northern Pike, and Yellow Perch can be found in Little Nesslin Lake. I caught a small Pike on my third cast while paddling through.

The main inflow for Nesslin Lake is the small creek from Swede Lake, another creek flows out of the lake on the south west end of the lake.

This lake has been personally visited by myself, Matthew Siemens.
