Longnose Sucker About MAMIT LAKE
Mamit Lake is a shallow, medium-size lake, located between Merritt and Logan Lake in the Mamit Valley. The lake is part of the Guichon Creek watershed, flowing into the Nicola River, near Merritt, and on into the Thompson River. The lake is a popular trolling lake. Wedding Bands and Flatfish are favourite lures for anglers trolling Mamit Lake. Trout are generally in the one or two pound range but have been reported up to five pounds. Because the lake is relatively shallow, it may be a good choice for early spring or later in the fall. Particularly right after ice-off (the time when ice has just left the lake), trout will feed actively.
If you are heading out to fly fish, bloodworms, leeches and shrimp are good early season choices. Other good all-season choices are trolling leeches, Woolly Buggers and Doc Spratleys.
The lake is good for chironomids early in the year, and is also known for its good Mayfly hatch. The north and south ends of Mamit Lake have good shoal areas. Keep in mind that trout will be more active in the evening, as will their food sources. At these times, bright flourescent colours can sometimes produce good results. Mamit lake has a good burbot fishery. However, the B.C. Freshwater Fishing Regulations specify that it is a catch-and-release fishery only.
The wind can get very high down the valley and that can make the lake dangerous at times. Be sure to watch the weather closely and don’t get caught unprepared.
Don’t forget ice fishing! Chilliwack Dart and Tackle has posted some great ice fishing video on the page for Mamit Lake.
