Double up on one rod!🤣🤣

The annual Como Lake Fishing Derby will be held Sunday May 26, 2019, starting at 7 am. The derby is open to kids under the age of 16 and is free to enter. Hundreds of prizes will be awarded, starting at noon. The derby is put on by three local clubs—Port Coquitlam Rod and Gun Club, Kinsmen Club of Coquitlam and Coquitlam Festival Society—as well as Coquitlam Leisure and Parks Services. The Como Lake sport fishery benefits from a provincial stocking program run by The Freshwater Fisheries Society of B.C. Thousands of fish are stocked in Como Lake; see the stocking tables at the end of this guide for more information. An easy way to get started fishing on this lake is to use Powerbait on a hook, then cast the line out and let it sit on the bottom. Another easy technique is using a bobber with a worm on a hook. More experienced anglers can try fly fishing with a small chironomid pattern. Use it with a bobber and let it hang several inches off of the bottom. Or try a small bead-headed microleech. There are two docks located on the lake, and a trail which wraps around the shoreline, offering many places to fish. Como Lake used to have an age restriction in place, the purpose of which was to increase the participation levels of young people in sport fishing. This restriction was lifted in 2009 and Como Lake is now open to anglers of all ages. However, please note that quotas have changed for Como Lake. Please check out the BC Freshwater Fishing Regulations for more information. LAKE ACCESS Como Lake is located in Coquitlam, off Gatensbury Street. There are two parking parking areas at the north and south ends of the lake. A park surrounds the lake and includes a playground and wildlife viewing area.
