Will give it a try this sunday , what time does the gate open ,no parking on the street and what size hooks do you use .

[chronicfisher]

Was there today saw some few big bass jumping.

Last time I was there the parks guy opened the gates around 5 but it depends sometimes its earlier or later and might be different on a sunday. I used a 2 hook but my spinner was a 1/8 oz (ultralight rod) so tiny hook. It's non pressured bass so they bite anything that moves.
And u sure it was bass and not carp?

Yep decent size one jumped a few times just by the lilies.gonna give it another shot on the weekend fairly close to where I am.there was another fellow there fishing and kept on landing 5-6 inches over and over again with a float setup.

A guy told me he catches 3 pounders in september. Maybe it's the same one though over and over

Maybe. Some bass are really dumb and will get caught over & over again.

What got me the most bites and best hook sets were the 3 inch power bait minnows hooked through the fake eyes and twitched and jerked on the retrieve. But blue fox spinners work great too. Can't stress the use of polarized glasses enough

I cut my fishing teeth on bass in Ont...a 2" black and silver Rapala was the ticket every time...then I discovered flyfishing and matuka's  and deerhair poppers were the goto flys for me....

Went there today caught a 2pounder bass and 2 other small ones.

Guys. Bass are really tasty (especially the ones 3 lb & under) go to deer lake and get yourself an easy meal.

Would being on a boat increase my chances of catching bass? Is the method same as shore?

Really?  Never eat anything out of Deer Lake.  Are you trying to be funny or trolling?   And catch and release the bass so that we can have a great and local bass fishery.

went and fished deer lake today, 6 bass in 10 mins.. wow these guys are everywhere..
its kind of scary how the deer lake drains into burnaby lake which drains into the fraser.
Iv been fishing these 2 lakes for years and years.. this past year has a massive increase spike in bass and a massive decrease numbers in cutthroat trout that run through burnaby lake.

Dude, I've had bass in lakes polluted way worse than Deer. They tasted alright. And I did not get sick. This is because bass can resist pollution.

What were you using ? Will try tomorrow morning .

Ive also been catching bass in deer lake on wedding band spinners, maybe 10 a day. Great fun! Can you actualy fish in burnaby lake? What kinda fish are in there?

Caught a dozen tonight with the biggest being 11 inches. Missed many more, all on poppers except one on a woolly bugger.
