 Fishing
Report: Harrison Lake contains a great variety of fish, however
Cutthroat and Rainbows reaching up to 3 lbs. are the most important to
fishermen. Trolling is best suited for this large, deep lake with the
best fishing areas being at the mouths of feeder creeks, coves and estuaries.
Boaters must be careful because winds can build up large swells on the
lake.
Viewscape:
The Harrison Lake area is breathtaking with beautiful coves, beaches and
islands, rock cliffs, waterfalls, coniferous forests and snow-capped mountains.
An excellent area for a family vacation or business retreat.
