Anyone heard anything about Roche? Has it started to turn? I'm heading up there on the 23, 24 & 25 and would love a little 'heads up'!

Thanks in advance!

I was talking to Gary Elgaar at Riverside Fly and Tackle yesterday. He was up on Roche on the weekend for the "Fishing with the Pros" weekend. They were busting up ice with their boats on Saturday AM and it was all gone by noon. My guess is it hasn't turned yet, but your best bet would be to phone the lodge (250 828 2007) and ask them.

Thanks for calling flyguy.. I'm wondering.. not being an expert at turning lakes.. how long do you think before she's ok again? As I said, I'm heading up the weekend after long weekend (23, 24, 25). If she's no good when I get there, i guess its a good thing there are other lakes in the area.

I was told that all the lakes in the area that were iced off at the same time Bleeker, Roche, Horseshoe are all turning. Black was still slightly iced over on Saturday, might still be good there, lakes in the back of Black are ???. Might be a muddy drive getting into them!!

8) I'm so pumped!

Heading up to Roche lake this evening.. for the weekend..

If I recall correctly my Blackberry had decent reception out on the lake.. so I'll try to post a report as soon as I lay into one (or not). ;D

I'm having a hard time holding in my excitement! :happy:

Yer not gonna be happy with the limited vis and the rather average to slow fishing right now....The lake needs a few more days.....This weekend, with the current weather pattern, I would take my woolies to 3700 ft. elev. It's going to be a little windy and cool..............Ortho 8)
