ok this is what i have caught and seen caught in this little lake.

caught by myself..... Rainbows, Cut-Bows (cutthroat/rainbow mix), catfish and i almost had that giant Koi/Carp hooked up one day. My biggest fish out of there so far is about 5lbs on a lure. Biggest on my flyrod was this March and about 4lbs.

I have also caught Crayfish by hand out of this lake, on that note though you are NOT allowed to enter the water at this lake (i didnt know this when i caught the crayfish because i didnt bother to read the sign) stupid me.

I have also seen one of the Sturgeon hooked up but was lost unfortunately. I have also seen some huge lunkers caught on a fly biggest being around 10lbs  :o

Those are not true catfish. They are brown bullheads

I was there today, and if there is a NO POWERBAIT rule, then there should be a CO having a good look. I saw at least 3 people using it today.

90 % plus use powerbait fishing that lake I haven't seen any regs on that there. I only use local worms with some Budweiser scent when fishing there :)

Green Timbers is not in the regs, so no bait ban.

That is what I thought. I looked yesterday and could not find any regs on it.

Talking about handy folding rods, I picked up a great little ultralight 4 piece spinning rod in Japan that I use for about 80% of my fishing these days. (It breaks down to 4 18 inch segments) It balances perfectly with the reel I got for it, light to handle and no issues with eyes not aligning - I really like it.  Unfortunately I haven't seen anything like that here.

There are some large brood fish in there which go up to ten pounds and had two on. One was like a big log, the other took me into my backing before snapping the leader. Both around 4 pounds.

biggest fish i have ever seen out of that lake was 12lbs  :o and caught with a bobber and worm. Its actually how i found out about the lake because it was on the front page of the Surrey Leader many years ago LOL

if you go to that little dock thing you can see a very tiny little plaque that says artificial baits/lures or worms only  ::) however im not sure if you have to follow that because its not in the reg's

and like i already said i only fly fish there now  ;)

I was told the sturgeons are around 3-4feet in length and someone put them in there a few years ago. Im pretty sure i know who put them in there and where they caught them in the first place  >:(
