hey people
im workin in the kootenays for a few months and was wondering how good christian lake is.i was by there the other day when my buddy stopped the car to take a piss and i grabbed my rod and ran down the bank. i hooked a decent smallie in like the 4th cast with a spinner bait,i released it and my buddy started yelling for me to go. so thats all i got of it. seems good,ive been hitting duck lake,but it seems only good when we had a boat. so im thinkin i'll try christina. i havent caught small mouth since i was on salt spring island like 4 years ago . so im pretty stoked!!!

is it all good from shore or does it pay to have a boat ?
any hot colors or lures?

what about duck, does duck turn on in the fall? fall bassing is sweet ,and i know at home they come fairly shallow again and smash top water.not uncommon to have over 50 bass in a day on a nice fall day on the main lake point at home, so i would hope this world renowned bass lake would be just as good.although i think i'll have the lake to my self because everyone will be hunting.

thanks for any replies.

Bass on Christina Lake are great......red wedding band or small red or pink lures....a boat would be the best...cast near the docks or along the cliffs across from Alpine...guaranteed to limit out.

duck lake is said to be one of the best bass lakes in the province if not the country... how much truth there is to that im not sure.. i do know it is an abolutely amazing bass lake.. the bass there have been known to grow over 10lbs
