Headin to Revelstoke...

[The Great White Hype]

Well, this weekend off to Revelstoke... The ol' lady is going to play ball and I am thinkin I will head out for some fishin. Now of course, it will be shore fishing.

Anyone tell me about some nice places to fish around there??

try upper arrow lake. about 20 min drive towards the ferry crossing. caught lots of kokanee's, dolly varden and rainbows oh and what they call a pikeminnow. took me a while to figure what type of fish i caught there. since bc doesnt allow you to use minnows. i just used a 5 diamond spoon. from what i remember your allowed to keep 5 fishes from there. kokanee's are pretty small, but everything else was from 1 lb to 8 lbs for the 3 days i was there staying at halcyon hot springs(other side of the ferry).
thats the closest place that i can think of for you to go fishing since you cant fish close to revelstoke from what i read in the regulation book. hope that helps and enjoy your time there.

The water has been running high near Revelstoke. Under the Hwy 1 bridge over the Columbia in Revvy, only on the downstream side is open.

Spoons, bucktails and Lyman plugs will get you into Cutthroat, Dollies, and Rainbows.

There is also a good spot across the street from the baseball diamonds, by the boat launch. Deep pool where the river makes a hard right. Keep your lure off bottom, or you will lose it.

Good luck, and have a burger and shake at the Nomad for me.
