Winter fishing<br />
<strong>Lake</strong> Fishing The winter season is prime<br />
fishing time. Because of the depth of <strong>Kootenay</strong><br />
<strong>Lake</strong> and the flow of the cu rents in the A row<br />
<strong>Lake</strong>s (both lakes are like widened areas of<br />
the Columbia River system), the water never<br />
freezes. Some people claim that wintertime<br />
fishing on the lakes is the best. You need an<br />
assortment of lures. Bucktails, plugs, apexes,<br />
Bi l Normans, and flasher/hoochies. That should<br />
Whitewater backcountry.<br />

Ice Fishing If you have a sled you can<br />
acces some of the sma l alpine lakes that do<br />
freeze. Many of these are stocked courtesy<br />
of the Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC.<br />
Again check www.sitesandtrailsbc.ca Another<br />
exce lent source is www.gofishbc.com<br />
For ice fishing, it is important to go to areas<br />
of the lake where the fish are most likely to<br />
concentrate. Fo rainbow trout and eastern<br />
brook char, the best fishing is often done in<br />
water less than five metres deep; in many<br />
situations, fishing in depths of three metres<br />

or less can be very<br />
e fective. Erie <strong>Lake</strong><br />
is located just 6<br />
km west of Salmo.<br />
It is a calm lake<br />
that is regularly<br />
stocked and it is<br />
sma l enough that<br />
it usua ly freezes in<br />
the winter. The lake is<br />
rich in underwater plant<br />
life which makes it a perfect<br />
environment for the many species of fish that<br />
have been introduced. Ye low perch, trout<br />
and bass are common, and are good eating.<br />
There is northern pike in the lake as we l (good<br />
eating? a ma ter of opinion!) The li tle sunfishes<br />
ca led Pumpkinseed, which won’t grow bigger<br />
than your hand, are very high spirited and great<br />
fun for beginners and kids.<br />
