About PINE LAKE

Pine Lake is a popular angling destination for pike and walleye, partly due to its location halfway between Edmonton and Red Deer. The lake is home to residents and cottage owners year-round. Set in a picturesque forested valley, it used to be known for its perch as well, but not so much in recent years. The Dimestore Fishermen have produced a YouTube video for Pine Lake. Volunteer Kevin Wingert notes that changing fishing regulations to limit catches of pike and walleye allowed these two species to rebound. As a result, the perch were controlled. See the video at youtube.com/watch?v=_UQp170Z3M.

iFish Alberta user Shawnf recommends "trolling about 6 feet deep with rapala's in 15 feet of water." Another guest user recommends fishing with a jig and minnow 7 metres deep. The Pine Lake Restoration Society actively monitors the lake water quality and works to conserve the lake’s beauty and recreational values.

LAKE ACCESS

To access Pine Lake from Pine Lake from Red Deer, take Hwy. 2 south for 8 km, then turn east on Hwy. 42 and drive for about 25 km to the north end of the lake. A boat launch is located at Green Acres Campground, on the west side of the lake.

Lots of snow on the lake, often pushing drifts with the bumper of a Chev Blazer. Ice was so thick I almost needed an extension on the auger. 1 small pike in 5 midday hours.
