Paterson Lake is located just north of Grey Lake which is on the Brewster Lake road.
Turn onto the Paterson Lake Road just north of Grey lake.
Or you can reach the lake from
the Camp Five Mainline just above Brewster Lake.
This Lake has some great fishing in it. I remember coming to this lake when l was just 6 or 7, some 50 years ago.
A friend of my dads had a cabin at the west end of the lake and we would go and spend the weekend fishing the lake.
The fish were big but I was small so maybe they just seemed big.
For the last 30 or so years, a family has lived on the island in the lake.
The forestry tried to have them removed several times but the courts would let them stay.
I did not see anything wrong with them being there. About 2 years ago, the old guy had to go to town for some medical service and well they were in town, their house was burnt down.
They lost all their stuff but more than that, they lost their way of life that they had made for themselves.
