A website called fishingbooker.com listed Dauphin Lake as one of the 8 Best Fishing Destinations in Canada for 2023.

Dauphin Lake is the only place on the list located in Manitoba and it is billed as "an unmissable fishery" where Walleye is a year-round favourite catch.

The website notes that fishers can also catch Northern Pike, Burbot, Yellow Perch, Freshwater Drum, Carp, and Smallmouth Bass, thanks to seven tributaries to the lake which provide a variety of fish and in good quantity. When you do not feel like fishing, the lake is also known for clear waters and sandy beaches to take advantage of in the summer.

The list ranked from 1 to 8:

  • Calgary, AB
  • Sooke, BC
  • St. Lawrence River, QC
  • Avalon Peninsula, NF&L
  • Haida Gwaii, BC
  • Lac Seul, ON
  • St. Peters Bay, PEI
