Menzul Lake falls in in Manitoba. The water sits 595 metres up. Around 11 hectares of surface means several distinct areas to work. The full circuit measures close to 3.1 km on foot. Our Manitoba list holds plenty of bigger water. The closest town, Roblin, is 20 km distant. For a city, Regina is 257 km off. The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.
Depth is not on record here, so the bank has to tell you. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. At Menzul Lake the water rewards a slow, careful approach. Read the water for ten minutes before the first cast.
July is the warm end of the year here, averaging about 18°C, while January sits near -20°C. A hard winter is normal, and the thaw brings a strong few weeks. Ice fishing carries the winter, and the water opens about late April. The water is typically free of ice between late April and mid November. Early summer and early autumn carry the open-water season. It sets the rhythm of the year at Menzul Lake.
Our records carry no access rule either way. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. No launch point is recorded nearby, so this is a bank water unless you carry a boat in. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Access can change hands, so last year's answer may not hold. The nearest alternative is Blanche Lake, 5.6 km out. Ask locally about Menzul Lake if anything is unclear.
