Tobin Lake, SK Waterfront Acreage
Listing Realtor
Looking for a recreational bombshell for your family and friends? This might be the one! Only 2 hrs east of Prince Albert, this property consists of 122 acres with a good balance of cultivated land, feed plots and treed areas. It lies along the mouth of the Saskatchewan River where it flows into Tobin Lake taking in over 800 meters of waterfront.
If you are an outdoorsperson who likes to fish and hunt this property would suit you well. Picture yourself hunting for moose, elk or deer in the morning and then kicking back for an afternoon fish before taking in the evening hunt, without ever leaving your property except by boat!
This property is well set up to support and foster healthy wildlife with two 15 acre alfalfa feed plots and lots of cover. The top 40 acres of the property are cultivated and taken care of by the neighbouring farmer. Actually, he takes care of the food plots for the owner as well, including seeding them.
The property is accessed via 800 meters of good gravel road. There is a trail down to the water where you can launch a tin boat, although it would be easy enough to put in solid access anywhere along the waterfront for ease of consistent use.
If you haven’t fished Tobin Lake you are missing out – the walleye is off the wall! Ha! The world record ice fishing walleye was caught here, as well as the provincial record for open water walleye! I think that speaks for itself. And to be honest, the river fishing is where it’s at which is literally at your doorstep. The river and lake provide a variety of species to keep it interesting: Perch, Sturgeon, Pike and Walleye.
If you are looking for a place to escape and enjoy world class recreational opportunities this will check that box and more. Freehold land along Tobin Lake is very limited with this being one of the last parcels available. It has subdivision potential if your friends or family want a little piece of this paradise as well!
If you’re looking to catch your 10lb+ trophy fish, Tobin Lake could help you fulfill your vision. Tobin offers Perch, Pike, Sturgeon, and Walleye (Pickerel).
Tobin was formed in 1963 with the damming of the Saskatchewan River, and quickly became known as a hot spot for big walleye and other big catches. By 1978 this fame had taken its toll on the lake. Tobin handled this by implementing strict slot limits. Since then the lake has made an outstanding revival, seeing unprecedented numbers of monster fish. The provincial record walleye for open water and the world record ice walleye were caught here.
Tobin Lake is known for monster walleye (it still holds the SK record of 18lb 4.8oz set in 2005), but it’s technically the Saskatchewan River portion of the prairie reservoir that entices most trophy hunters, which includes the 19 kilometres between the François-Finlay Dam and the lake proper. As the fall season approaches, the mighty fish of Tobin Lake are making their way into the river to fatten up before winter turns the lake into an ice fisher’s dream. All season long is great for fishing at Tobin Lake, but the biggest fish are caught in October.
