Alta Lake
« on: May 22, 2012, 02:04:18 PM »
Worth going or still too cold?  I live in Burnaby so it's a bit of an investment...

We haven't been up there this year yet but I'm pretty sure the fishing has already been good for awhile. In past years, we started catching them in late April, but fishing was never that consistent but we encountered more large cutthroat trout than small rainbow trout. In late May and early June, lots of surface activity but there were always more smaller rainbows than larger cutthroats (for us anyway) during this time of the year.

As Rod says lots of small fish around but it's hardly worth the bother-I'll be there again tomorrow so we'll see.
