Fishing the trout Hiway in BC

[rmatei]

Going to fish the area between clearwater and 100 mile house in the next 3 weeks, Thinking about the sheridan/ bridge lakes area. Anyone care to share a decent lake in this area for fly fishing big rainbows?

Bought a fly rod from Yosh in I believe it was 83. Still have it, was great customer service, his son packed up a bunch of rods and we headed to a park. Come to think of it he pretty much had to teach me how to cast as well, one of my best holiday's, those two weeks in Kamloops.

Still remember, nobody had seen a belly boat there, was weird, mecca of trout fishing in lakes and nobody knew about belly boats. Oh and his son hated "gang trollers". LOL

The guys at Little Fort Fly Shop know their stuff, it is a must to stop by. They also have fishing maps of the area.
We were in the area in early June at Thuya Lakes and mayfly hatches were sparse, but some good evening showing of caddis that took well on elk hair caddis size 16-18 my son did well on Adams 14-16's. Daytime, we trolled nymphs with success. I did get some action on PMD's aroound mid-day and sulphurs in the evening 16-20's. Nymphs - GRHE's in 16-22's also brought a few fish to he net.
The Doc Spratley caught a lot of smaller fish and some larger too, in red and green bodies, but the black body didn't do as well, sizes 10- 6's
Best though were chironomids, especially with a light chop on the water, enough to move the striker indicator ever so slowly. These fish struck hard and with a 5-6X tipped I broke more than once on good sized fish. Red bodies with white bead heads worked best in size 8 - 12.

Wow, I'm I glad I found this thread, and thanks for posting it. I had no idea there was such a place as trout highway. Tons of lakes within reach of each other, truly awesome.
I really enjoy fly fishing from my tube on trout ponds if weather permits. This area looks like a little slice of heaven to me. Thinking I know where the next fishing vacation is going to be.

Thanks

You can spend a lot of years in that country and never fish most of the lakes up there. It was really nice before they built Hwy24. Want a nice drive going up there, go up the west side of Adams lake and cut over to Barriere, it takes about 40-50 miles off.

Fawn lake used to be good, have not fished it for 3-4years
