Rolling Hills Reservoir

This Alberta Prairie lake is located in Newell County just 23km from Brooks. Rolling Hills has a self sustaining population of Northern Pike and Walleye that provides good fishing for Alberta anglers. Perch, Lake Whitefish and Burbot are found here as well, and despite the high population of fish in this lake you can still expect to hook into a few sizeable fish lurking around. A special Walleye Harvest License is required for anglers who wish to keep any Walleye from this lake.

Rolling Hills is set-up well for all anglers, having a good amount of shoreline to fish from, as well as a marina and boat launch for those who have boats. But be advised that weather changes quickly and strong winds blow through the area frequently, so if you plan on taking a boat on the water, don't be surprised if you battle waves and choppy conditions. If you plan on fishing for the weekend you can pay (At the campground head office) to keep your boat in the marina. Or if your looking to switch things up a bit, Lake Newell is just across the road and provides excellent fishing as well, and is home to some of the province's largest Pike.
