Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 4:43 am

Limerick Lake in Ontario Canada is an approx. 8.3 km² lake, near Limerick Township, Ontario. In 1937, the building of St. Ola Dam raised the level of Big Salmon Lake by two meters. The lake was then renamed, as part of a process in Ontario to give each large lake a unique name.

Limerick Lake has between 5 to 10 full-year residents and another approx. 200 seasonal residents who visit mainly in the summer months from June to September. Limerick Lake is typically frozen over from late November to Late April each year and supports several winter activities such as snowmobiling, cross country skiing, dogsledding, and snowshoe hiking. The area is heavily forested, as is the shoreline of the lake, the main local industry being forestry and logging.

The lake’s dimensions are 8.29 km² (2,050 acres); average depth: 10 meters (32 ft); maximum depth: 30 meters (96 ft); elevation: 332 meters (1,080 ft) above mean sea level. The average summer water temperature in July and August reaches 27 °C (80 °F) and the fish contains the following species of fish: Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Yellow Perch, Rock Bass, Lake Trout, Bluegill.
