About Boyne River Dam Trail
Just after the turn of the century, the dam and power plant were built as a public utility to provide electricity to the surrounding communities. The resulting impoundment above the dam covers about 80 acres. The lake is completely surrounded by private land and is not available for public access. However, from Dam Road upstream about 0.3 miles to the pool below the dam, is one of the most popular fishing spots on the river. There are steelhead that run in this area in spring and fall, an excellent salmon run in the fall, and good brown trout fishing throughout the season.
