Pitt lake
« on: May 21, 2015, 09:27:42 PM »
Have never really fished the lake before other than from a dock. What kind of fish are in the lake, and what gear would I need to get them. Lol. Any info would be appreciated. And yes I'll be in a boat
Thanks, dave

Lots of whitefish in there. I've caught them with 5wt fly rod and intermediate line with a small minnow pattern. Small spinners would work as well. Besides that, there are some cutties and dollies as well.

Of course the best fishing is in the upper Pitt, but you would need a jetboat to access this section of the river above the lake.

For cutthroat and dollies, fish the creek mouths. Pitt Lake is deep fiord lake and the shallow sloping deltas at the creek mouths can provide good fishing. The mouth of Raven is a good bet. Also fish the structure around pilings and docks.
