great lake for winter cutthroat using 3 inch tomic plugs
Boomerang lake
This is a great ice fishing lake, usually the left end of the lake is most productive for ice fishing, pay attention to a small creek right across the lake from access point, not easy to see but if it starts raining while you fishing try a worm with no weight dropped in the current of the creek and allow it to sink I think you may be surprised at how effective this can be.
Okay lk
This small lake produces some very nice sized trout but catch location is very specific and boat access is shallow. from boat launch area, fish down left hand shoreline into back corner, make a tight turn to the right and head back in direction you came from, this will allow your sinking lint to drop into a deep spot and then pick up as you line streightens out again this is the point where the fish will strike. minnow patterns work well for me in this lake
Maple lake
This is a great lake for fly fishing whether trolling streamers,casting dry flies or chronamid fishing. for gear fishermen trolling willow leaf gang troll or Cowichan spoon are all effective, a black Flatfish or Kwickfish #5 with orange spots work best for the cutthroat and a K5 chrome and blue for rainbows, also bobber fishing with a worm is quite popular and some of the largest fish I've caught in this lake have been caught bottom fishing with powerbait (orange and or chartruese) or chum roe
Healy lk also known locally as Panther
Great rainbow fishing, try a light green scud #16 if fish go off bite throughout the day switch to a leach pattern as this helps fish digest shrimp
