Family Day Lake Fishing?
« on: February 09, 2021, 01:41:02 PM »

Thinking of taking the kids out in the small 12 footer to do some lake fishing.  I was going to drag a fly and maybe a small spinner and see what we can get into. 

The other part of me thinks its going to get cold and maybe I should do something that requires a little less work.  Maybe shore fishing.

Has anyone been to the lower mainland lakes.  Thinking of Buntzen or maybe even Rolley.

Any thoughts... is this just a boat trip more than a fishing trip...
