Where would I find Lemmon Lake?

It is a Halifax Regional Municipality water, Nova Scotia side, sitting 145 metres above sea level. Reckon 38 km to Bible Hill and 39 km to Stewiacke.

What area does Lemmon Lake cover?

The mapped surface is well under half a hectare. It is a mapped area rather than a measured one. Take a sounding before you settle on a swim.

Which fish live in Lemmon Lake?

Fish documented in Halifax Regional Municipality include brook trout, alewife, rainbow smelt and American eel. Protected fish appear in the records for this area, so treat the list as information, not an invitation.

How deep does Lemmon Lake get?

No depth figure is published for this water. Work it out on the water: the first drop-off is worth more than the middle. Shut any gate you open on the way in.

Does Lemmon Lake freeze?

Winter puts a hard lid on this one. Ice-out usually falls in mid April, and the weeks after it fish hardest. Expect the water usable from around mid April until roughly mid December.

Is Lemmon Lake trailerable?

There is no recorded launch here; a boat would have to be carried in. Check the season dates for what you intend to fish for. If one is coloured, the next along is often clear.

AI Fishing Insight

No direct sun expected today, with a gentle ripple from the NNE and pressure going nowhere. Fish at Lemmon Lake should hold close to the margins and the shelf beyond them. The numbers single out the night. Work fewer spots, but work them properly. The cold will pin fish to deeper, stable water.

Lemmon Lake in Halifax Regional Municipality: How and When to Fish It

Overview
In Nova Scotia, Lemmon Lake falls inside Halifax Regional Municipality. It stands 145 metres above sea level. Small even by pond standards, it rewards one careful line. It is a small entry by Halifax Regional Municipality standards. You are 38 km from Bible Hill. It is 79 km to Dartmouth, the nearest city. The boundary is close enough to be worth checking before you fish.
Where to Fish on Lemmon Lake
Our records hold no depth for this water. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Open biodiversity records for Halifax Regional Municipality list brook trout, alewife, rainbow smelt and American eel. Protected fish appear in the records for this area, so treat the list as information, not an invitation. At Lemmon Lake the water rewards a slow, careful approach.
Seasonal Patterns
In an average year July sits at 18°C and January at -7°C. Winter puts a hard lid on this one. Winter locks it down, and mid April brings it back. Open water usually runs from mid April until about mid December. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. The season on Lemmon Lake rarely departs from it.
Tackle & Baits
Who may fish here is not settled in anything we hold. We find no slipway, car park or made path within a short radius, so treat access as rough. Trout here take small spinners, spoons and, where fly water allows, a nymph or dry. Ask in the nearest town if you are unsure. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. Failing this one, try Crooked Lake, 0.7 km away. Nothing on Lemmon Lake should be assumed from this page alone.
