Shubenacadie Grand Lake is a very large and diverse lake bordering Halifax Regional Municipality and Hants county on mainland Nova Scotia. Draining into the Shubenacadie River at its northeastern outlet, it is the seventh and largest lake in the Shubenacadie canal system. Originally, this canal system was designed to transport goods from Halifax harbour all the way to the Bay of Fundy. Prior to its existence, the Shubenacadie River (locally referred to as the Shubie) was used by Mi’kmaq people to move between hunting and fishing grounds as seasons changed.

Shubenacadie Grand Lake offers excellent fishing for trophy Smallmouth Bass, Chain Pickerel and, depending on the season, Striped Bass. There are also small populations of Brook Trout and landlocked salmon. This lake is best fished by boat. Guides are recommended for the most enjoyable, productive and safest experience on this trophy-fish water.
