Nemeiben Lake
Nemeiben Lake is a popular fishing and recreational destination located 25km NNW of La Ronge and 237km N of Prince Albert. It's a massive lake covering 37,342 acres, making it the 42nd largest lake in the province!
Many of the cabins and the forest on much of the lake burned during a 2015 forest fire.
Lac La Ronge Provincial Park is adjacent to the south shore of Nemeiben Lake. There is a provincial campground with a boat launch and beach on the lake, as well as the Hamlet of Nemeiben Lake adjacent to the park.
The campground and hamlet are accessible from a narrow gravel road that branches off of Highway 102. The rest of the lake is only accessible by water.
You'll find Lake Trout, Northern Pike, Walleye, Yellow Perch, Burbot, Whitefish, and Suckers in the lake. Please note that Nemeiben Lake is a CR1 (catch-and-release water) and the limits are different from most lakes. Also, limits are inclusive of fish caught on both Nemeiben Lake and the adjacent Head Lake.
The name of the lake Nemeiben comes from the Cree word for sucker
This lake has been personally visited by myself, Matthew Siemens.
