Rainbow Trout About FINGER LAKE
Finger Lake is about a two hour drive from Prince George, one hour south of Vanderhoof and is part of the Chilako River Watershed. This remote lake is a perfect weekend getaway for the family and is ideal for fishing with children because it’s so easy to catch fish!
Wayne Koftinoff from Finger Lake Resort says, “It is not uncommon to have 30 hookups on an outing. Pan fries up to a pound or pound and half are voracious. More than two fishing rods in a boat can be chaos!”
Koftinoff says that fishing has been great. Several larger sized fish have been reported. “Last season we had numerous fish landed over 2 pounds and on up to 3.2 pounds. Anglers do well when the weather is hot.”
Popular spots on the lake include The Narrows, south of the second island, the point of drainage South into Finger Creek and The Deep Hole on the north finger. The many islands in the lake are great habitat, and anglers are never far from shore.
“Trolling small spinners and worms with a Willow Leaf is productive. Also using a sink tip or full sink with dragon fly nymphs, Doc Spratleys or popular leech patterns are just as rewarding,” Koftinoff suggests.
Finger Lake is a great Family Fishing destination because of the high catch frequency. Even fishing right from the main dock, people can catch large trout.
There are numerous other fishing opportunities nearby as well. Arthur, Hobson Tatuk, Lavoie, Secord, Gluten and Cicuta Lakes are just some of the many popular trout lakes in the area. Koftinoff says that one of these nearby lakes produced a trout estimated to be 10 to 12 pounds. Keep in mind that some of these are hike-in lakes, and catch-and-release.
