Anglers visiting the Kootenays have an excellent
variety of lakes and sportfish to choose from. From the large valley lakes with
their trophy sized trout, to the hidden mountain lakes with small but plentiful
trout, the fishing can be fantastic. There is an excellent selection of bass
lakes and a healthy stocking program for smaller trout lakes. Anglers can find
a few varities of rainbow trout in the region, including the large growing
Gerrard strain, while brook trout, Westslope cutthroat trout, kokanee,
largemouth bass, mountain whitefish and turbot make up the bulk of the other
more sought after species. Whether it is a large lake or a tiny pond, anglers
will find good-sized trout ready for the taking.
