The lake will be stocked with trophy rainbow trout the week of April 29. The lake is open water. For recent fishing updates, call the resort at 1-866-201-4194.
The lake is dominated by stunted yellow perch. Very small bait and hooks will catch these fish. Yellow perch fishing should be slow.
Fishing for warmwater fish might improve with warmer conditions. Fishing for brown trout and kokanee might be worth a try. A few holdover rainbow trout are being caught trolling spoons and spinners.
