Nisbet Trout Pond

Nisbet Trout Pond is a tiny (2-acre) stocked trout pond located 15km W of Prince Albert. Located down a seasonal sand road off Highway 3.

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.

Despite a warning way back in 2021 that the pond was going to be decommissioned as of 2025, the pond was still being stocked with Rainbow Trout every year. 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 for canoes/kayaks beside the pond.

Thanks for the comment! No that's not accurate. Not sure why it's labelled like that on Google.
