About DOLBERG LAKE

Dolberg Lake is a popular fishing spot northwest of Barrhead. Each year, the lake is stocked with 18,000 rainbow trout, helping to sustain a thriving fishery. Bait is permitted in Dolberg Lake and trout will often key in on shrimp or maggots, particularly for ice fishing.

"Good little lake, good fishing," writes Angler’s Atlas user martin78. "[I] will definitely be back.” Another Angler’s Atlas user, lancetay, jokes, “there are no fish here, nothing to see, move along,” while holding a fat 6- to 8-lb. rainbow. iFish Alberta user Dickweed reports “nice rainbows, power bait marshmallows and pink or green trout power bait, on snell hook and bobber, just keeping it easy for the kids.”

Some of the best fishing here is in the fall. Fly fishing can be particularly productive when the waterboatmen are hatching.
