The lake is situated in the Rural Municipality of Reynolds with the Rural Municipality of Piney on its western shore. The lake feeds the Whitemouth River, which is a large tributary of the Winnipeg River, while the lake itself is primarily fed by underground springs.[1] The lake contains the Whitemouth Island Ecological Reserve, which is a relatively untouched and pristine example of a Great Lakes hardwood forest. Whitemouth is a large but shallow lake in Eastman Manitoba. The lake is a popular recreational fishery for walleye, though in recent years, as a result of shallow depths and high nutrient levels, the lake can be susceptible to winter die offs of the fish population as the oxygen supplies dwindle in the lake.[2]
