Ferguson Lake is small lake within the City of Prince George, along the north-east edge of the city limits.
The lake has been stocked with brook trout for several years, but starting in 2007, the lake is being developed as an urban fishery. Each year since then, volunteers from the Spruce City Wildlife Association have released rainbow trout into Ferguson Lake.
The club is developing this location into a popular local fishery for anglers and educators. A new dock has been constructed, and it is quickly becoming a favourite local spot. It's easy to get to and the fishing has been great. The Father's Day Fishing Event is a great way to introduce children to fishing.
This lake has been designated a Family Fishing Water by the Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC. Family Fishing Waters are so named because they are easily accessible and the lakes boast ample opportunities to fish from shore or a pier. See the BC Freshwater Fishing Regulations for more information.
LAKE ACCESS
From Prince George, head north along Hwy 97 to Kelly Rd North, still within city limits. Turn left (west) onto North Kelly Road and continue for approximately 1 km, then turn left onto Ferguson Lake Rd. Stay on this road (keeping right at the fork where it turns to gravel). The lake is located on the left side of road.
There is a small parking area and the lake has a dock to fish from. It is ideally suited for small watercraft, and no motors are permitted.
The lake is surrounded by a nature preserve and has a trail around the lake.
