Nisbet Trout Pond

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.

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

Only been here a couple times. So I have not got to explore much. But it’s a short drive from PA
