Rainbow Trout About Dina Lake #1
Dina Lakes are located in the Heather-Dina Lakes Provincial Park. While some facilities are available, they are rustic, and the lakes offer a chance to explore a wilderness setting. Dina Lakes are a popular canoe circuit as well as a popular angling destination. Dina Lakes #1, 2 and 3 are the prime fishing spots in this chain of 6 lakes.
Rainbow and brook trout are both stocked in these lakes. While Dina lakes #1 and 2 have been stocked with trout for many years, Dina Lake #3 has been more recently rehabilitated to enhance the fishery and create a spawning stream. Once barren, Dina Lake #3 now supports a healthy trout fishery.
Fly fishing early in the season is ideal for this group of lakes. Try a glass-bead chironomid, which imitates a chironomid in its pupa stage. These are slow moving and wormlike. Try various sizes in black, olive and maroon shades. Cast your line out and let it sink. Retrieve slowly, using a very slow hand-twist retrieve. Another pattern to try is a leech. Woolly Buggers, Beadhead Leeches and Marabou Leeches are some flies that may work at any time of the season. There are times when a leech can do the trick and nothing else seems to work. Keep leeches on hand in maroon and brown shades, as well as black.
LAKE ACCESS
Dina Lake #1 is the only lake in the Dina Lakes chain that is accessible by vehicle. The other lakes in this popular canoe circuit can be reached by short portage. From Mackenzie, head north on Highway 39 about 10 kilometres. Turn onto the Parsnip West Forest Service Road. The gravel road is suitable for 2WD in dry weather, though 4WD is recommended in wet conditions. On the Parsnip Forest Service Road, there is a sign at about the 31-kilometre point which indicates the way to the Dina Lake Forest Service recreation site, on Dina Lake #1. The recreation site is on the north side of the lake, with ten vehicle units, picnic areas and a boat launch. Campers are reminded to pack their own water as there is no drinking water available at these lakes.
