Lake Facts:
Pike Lake is located along County Road 10 (Scotch Line) north of Westport Ontario in Lanark County
co-ordinates: Lat. 44° 46′ 57″ Long. 76° 20′ 28″
water exits the lake on the north end via the Pike Lake Dam
this long and narrow lake has a perimeter of 21.9 km (13.7 miles)
while maximum depths reach 120′, the average depth is 27′
the surface area is 316 hectares (782 acres)
the islands along the lake’s shoreline provide good structure for bass and walleye fishing. The main lake shorelines (which drop off quickly) make for good walleye trolling runs. Try the creek waters from the dam back to the mouth for largemouth bass and pike. Larger pike tend to position themselves in deeper water during the summer
a public concrete boat launch is located off of Scotch Line near the dam on the north end
Pike Lake sits within Fisheries Management Zone 18
