Because its so shallow it does happen every few years. Usually they end up stocking lots of catchables in it afterwards.

I hope they will.

Nope. Its all word of mouth. Take your chances or fish a popular lake you know wont winterkill.

[sreeb]

Almost all small shallow lakes even ones with airators got winterkill to some degree this year it seems.

 For fishing reports in the Merritt area call Fred Watts at Nicola Valley Outdoors on Nicola St in Merritt 250-378-9211. Fred is usually pretty much up to date on the fishing/lake conditions. We still have a ton of snow at the higher elevations so for the higher lakes it's gonna be a while yet.
