The year is flying by and December is here.
Here’s the latest fishing report:
Kootenay Lake:
November saw the water temperature fall to our optimum number and the fish cooperated.
And now that December is here, we look forward to that continuing into the new year.
We’ve had quite a few corporate trips lately, as it is year end for most groups, and what a great way to enjoy a group outing.
Still have a lot of business groups and year end parties coming up
before year end, however we do still have some dates available if you’d like to get your crew out before the holidays. Drop us a line.
The fishing has been consistent, with the usual Rainbows between 2 – 4 Lbs and the odd Bull Trout up to 8 Lbs. In fact, this time last year is when we saw a few even bigger Rainbows up to 15Lbs come out to play. Although a lot of them were captured in the cull this spring, we are still hopeful that we may be in for a few surprises throughout the next little while.
Stay tuned……….
Holiday season is coming fast!! If you haven’t got that gift yet, or don’t know what to get, we also have Gift Certificates available right up until the last minute. Gift Certificates can be emailed for your convenience.
What are they biting on???
Rainbows have been mostly on the surface. So, our favourite Lux flies have been working well on the choppy days. Lucky numbers 210, 215, 222, 226 have been working best for us this month.
And, always on the middle rod, our favourite Gibbs Croc is still producing. Alternating between the brass/fire stripe and the brass/firewing has been most successful.
And for the Bull Trout, we have been getting the odd one on the surface, however most are coming in on the Gibbs STS or Lemon lime flasher, followed by either a green pistachio hoochie or a skinny g spoon. Specifically the ‘no bananas’ or ‘yes bananas’ spoon.
The fishing should remain good throughout December and hopefully carry on throughout the new year.
Drop us a line if you’d like to get out.
Tight lines……
