Pinkney Lake

Pinkney Lake is a small (350 acre) fishing lake located 32km NNE of the Resort Village of Candle Lake and 101km NNE of Prince Albert.

The lake is within Whiteswan Lake (Whelan Bay) Recreation Site and is located just east of the much larger Whiteswan Lakes. There is a primitive boat launch on the lake and no other amenities/facilities.

Walleye, Northern Pike and Yellow Perch can all be found in Pinkney Lake. The lake is periodically stocked with Walleye.

Pinkney Lake is accessible off of Highway 913 (gravel), the access road into the the lake is very rough. Take your time and make sure you vehicle has enough clearance.

Pinkney Lake was named after Charles Frederick Pinkney on 1951-06-07 as part of the GeoMemorial Commemorative Naming Program ran by the Sask Government.

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