Helene Lake

Helene Lake is a very large shallow lake located 23km NNE of Glaslyn and 67km SSE of Meadow Lake (City).

The lake is accessible down a fairly poor gravel road off of Highway 4. Signage is poor and the road can get quite muddy.

There is a rec. site with no amenities on the lake, other then an older boat launch with no dock.

Saulteaux 159A reserve borders part of the lake on the southeast side.

Helene Lake has historically been stocked with Walleye. It was first stocked in 1933, and was periodically stocked until 2009 when it was stocked for the last time. According to the 2015 Fish Facts the lake a complete winter kill of all Walleye occurred. I haven't heard anything more recently of the fishing on the lake.

This is a cement launch, but the water has come up and now starts before the start of the cement. See photos.
