For the ardent angler, Roy Lake produces nice catches of bullheads, perch, bluegills, walleyes, crappies, northern pike and large and small mouth bass. The lake level is the highest its been in 20 years with over 1 million fish stocked in 1993 and

Roy Lake is also 20 minutes from North Dakota which also has excellent hunting.
Things to Do!
The high-quality fishing, fine sandy beaches, clear water and scenic attractions make Roy Lake a popular destination for vacationers and business retreats.
Because there are such a variety of activities, many guests spend their entire vacation or stay in this one area.
- Some activities that are available are hiking at Sica Hollow State Park, which is a truly wild and beautiful part of S.D. that can be thoroughly enjoyed!
- Get saddled up and plan a trail ride with Art Borgen at Canyon Ranch!
