Stocking has started our local urban lakes. Mill Lake, Whonnock Lake, Rolley ,Lafarge, Como, Rice and Green Timbers Lakes were stocked on Thursday March 15th with the next stockings scheduled for later this week.Local Lake rainbow trout are released at “catchable size” and usually have an average weight of 300g.

Buntzen and Sasamat where stocked on April 3rd with a thousand fish each.
Hicks, Deer, Erock and Elbow have all been stocked as of April 4th with 500-1000 fish
We have also been getting great reports from mill lake recently, with fish upwards of six pounds being caught regularly. all coming information will be posted in the Region 2 stocking database at “http://www.gofishbc.com/stockingreports/default.htm“  
Fly guys should fishing larger patterns like leeches, buggers and dragonfly nymphs will produce fish.

Gear fisherman can still float or bottom fish bait and catch good numbers of fish. If that doesn’t seem appealing try throwing spoons and spinners while moving and working areas. This can be a lot of fun because you stay active and occupied instead.
3/16 oz Fire-Stripe Crocs are my personal favorite
