MARMOT LAKE
Marmot Lake is part of the Nazko River watershed west of Quesnel. It is a popular fly-fishing lake. The lake is stocked with 10,000 fall fry annually.
The community of Nazko maintains a campground on the northern shore of the lake. There are plenty of campsites available. This is a great location for a base camp, as there are other good fishing lakes close by, including Bishop (Brown), Crater and Fishpot lakes.
