Lake of the Day
Every day I will try and feature a different lake in Saskatchewan. Some weeks there is a theme to the lakes, and sometimes it's random, but either way it's a great way to learn about new lakes or rediscover old favourites!

ViewNisbet Trout Pond - Lake of the day for October 1, 2024
Nisbet Trout Pond is a tiny (2-acre) stocked trout pond located 15km W of Prince Albert.
The pond is the closest location to Prince Albert to fish (other than the river). It is also just a beautiful spot in the woods where you can spend some time in nature. Nisbet Trails Recreation Site is adjacent to Nisbet Trout Pond, and offers a large area of forest to explore and is a great spot for a hike.
As of 2023, the pond was still being stocked with Rainbow Trout every year, but the government has warned that they will stop stocking it at some point in the future. The dam that maintains the water level on the pond is failing and there is no plan to repair it.
The lake is accessible down a seasonal sand road off of Highway 3. The first little bit of the road is paved, before turning into a sand road at the Nisbet Trout Pond sign. During the summer and depending on conditions its possible to drive to the pond. There is a parking lot as well as launch access beside the pond.

Along the access road, there is a bridge that is no longer maintained, although you can walk across it, it is unsafe for vehicles. From the bridge, you can walk into Steepbank Lake itself.
