Question Bistcho tips?

Can anyone give me directions to a productive hole from the lodge? I'm from Rainbow Lake and taking my first trip to Bistcho in a weekend or two. Don't want to waste it wandering around a lake this size.

wow bistcho!

I used to work at the gas plant about 5km away... great times quading out to the lake for some fishing!!!

The only place we would try is here in the river... we would go towards the lake and had some success with some decent pike.... that was a few years back though...

good times!!!
