Lake Windermere

[The Great White Hype]

Good spot for me to get some Bass... Anyone on here know if she's open yet???

[Willowtrail]

I know there is open water spots but still lots of ice. Not sure on if its open to fish it.

I rented a 12' john with a 9.9 on that lake last year (first time trying to fish bass). The winds picked up in that valley and I almost subed the damn thing, My arms were super sore by the time I got back from trying to hold it down... took me over 45 mins to get that little boat to the dock, It had 2" of water in the bottom when I got it back there..... Hahaha F*%K lake windermere and their bass. looking back it was extremly funny thou, maybe I'll try again some day with a bigger boat : ) Oh and I was told upon retun that I would have been the third person to capsize that boat in the same year. Watch the clouds boys lol

How much was the boat rental, bushjunkie? I'm looking to plan a trip probably near the end of May. Either to Invermere or Osoyoos areas. That's not decided yet.

[bush junkie]

I don't recall off hand but I do remember reading that the bass are amazing near creston which isn't a whole lot further..

[OttCan]

Yea, I've read that too. If I drive from GP to the interior, even Van city isn't much farther. Haha. Worst case, I hold off til June and do a bit more research

Lots of largemouths like this... and bigger in Windermere

Is there a place to camp with a tent and not too many people? No prov. parks there with overnight areas on the map....

[curtis_rak]

You could camp at Redstreak in Radium... only 15kms from Invermere and about 20km from the town of Windermere

Wicked! Gonna try my hand at bass fishing this summer, a must on my things to do list.

Once you try it, you'll want to catch them everyday!! And you'll see what all the hype is about! I may attempt to fish them on the fly rod this year.
