Fishing Report: While most catches are about 1 lb., rainbows up to 7 pounds have been recorded. This lake is very popular with fishers. Trolling, spinning and fly fishing are all popular. In May the spawning fish can be seen in the habitat enhancement area in Watch Creek, with caution not to disturb them.

Be sure to visit Fishbc.com for angling information!

Viewscape: You can view the rolling Cariboo terrain from this lake; while the north and south shores still have forested and range land areas, the western end is quite developed with residential and recreational properties.

Note: Always check your current BC Fishing regulations before you start fishing a new lake.
