years and i do mean years ago the first wife and used to fish daisy lake for some awesome dollie fishing. we would park at the brandywine park (far end of lake from dam) and walk down (20-30 min walk) and then used single eggs (like bar fishing). don't know if the fishing is good anymore as i haven't fished it in 30 plus years.

ya a boats good but now that they have closed the lake to launching how do u propose to put it in the water. its a long way to carry one down that road.

Check out Birkenhead Lake...near Mt. Curry. During the spring run-off/kokanee spawn...fast-trolling chrome lures or small plugs behind a gang troll gives up some large bulls and dollies. These species are catch and release only tho. PM me if you're interested to know more... Cheers! -Nathan inNW

Birkenhead Lake:
Located 22 km West of D’Arcy. 90 km North of Whistler, 145 km North of Squamish. Take Highway 99 from Pemberton northeast to Mt. Currie, turn off Highway 99 to D’Arcy. Just before D’Arcy (about 50km from Mt. Currie) there are highway signs indicating a turn off on to a gravel road that leads to Birkenhead Lake. From there it is a 17 km drive along a gravel road. The nearest communities, towns and cities are D’arcy, Pemberton and Mt Currie.

Here is a BC Parks Map of the lake area...shows where the campsites, hiking trails, creeks are etc...
