Jumping Lake

Jumping Lake is a large fishing lake located 15km S of Birch Hills and 43km SSE of Prince Albert.

This is not the prettiest lake, but it is used for hunting and fishing as well as a stopping point for migrating geese and ducks.

There was once a beach and recreational facilities at the lake, but they were abandoned many years ago. There is not much at the lake today besides primitive lake access/launch. The now abandoned hamlet of Waitville is on the eastern shore of the lake, but not much remains now.

Although the lake is subject to occasional winter-kill it is still periodically stocked with Walleye.

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

Boat launch might be generous, but it would be possible to launch a canoe/kayak or a boat you could carry here.

Bathymetric (Depth) Charts for Jumping Lake

Jumping Lake Boat Launch

Very primitive lake access. It looked like someone had backed in a trailer when I was there, but more practical for a canoe/kayak or a boat you can carry to the water.
