Roderick Lake (Manitoba–Saskatchewan)

Roderick Lake is a large, irregularly shaped lake situated on the border between the provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan, Canada. A significant portion of the lake lies within Manitoba. The lake is characterized by numerous islands, bays, and inlets, contributing to its complex shoreline.

Its primary inflow is via the Cochrane River and its outflow is the Cochrane River, flowing north into Wollaston Lake and eventually to the Arctic Ocean via the Mackenzie River system. The lake is a part of the Churchill River drainage basin.

Roderick Lake is relatively remote and primarily accessed by floatplane or winter road. It is known for its recreational fishing opportunities, particularly for lake trout, northern pike, and walleye. The surrounding landscape is dominated by boreal forest.

The lake is located in a region with a subarctic climate, characterized by long, cold winters and short, cool summers. The surrounding area is sparsely populated and largely undeveloped.
