Just be sure to note wind conditions before you go. Allouette is big and can get really choppy for a small craft like a canoe.

Bbronswick2000 do you go up to Gold River or across maybe where the pylons are on opposite side?

If your in your boat you will see them rising. They rise everywhere. We catch them right in the middle of the lake trolling a clear intermediate.

Can you cast and strip for them?  I've never fished for them before.   ???

Troll a minnow pattern behind your canoe, they will bite.  They seem to prefer the steady speed of the trolled fly as opposed to the jerk of a strip retrieve.

Thanks for that Sandman, my brother-in-law swears by trolling for Kokanee, where I really prefer jigging about a foot off the bottom , seems like both techniques work equally well, but Allouette Lake is much deeper than Kawkawa Lake and trolling seems  the way to go, thx,  :)
