Was up at Shuswap for the weekend and decided to hit White lake for the day. Got to White, forgot our pumps for the tubes so headed back and then decided to try a smaller lake, as White looked quite intimidating. Headed up to Skimkim, small lake up in the hills. "Closed to Angling" was the sign. Looks like they are or will be killing it off because of illegally introduced species...yada yada yada...open maybe 2012.
issed: Why do people do this. Anyways, decided to try out White. Beautiful lake, quite clear and very nutrient-rich I would say. Between the girlfriend and I managed to land about 6 fish, one of which was a beauty 2lber that hammered my hook. A great day out in the sun on the water. The next day we decide to stop by Morgan/6-mile lake on our way home. Left the truck at home on this trip so we were limited to car access-only lakes this trip. Headed up the dirt road to Morgan and come to a very nice little blue lake. Fished it for a couple hours. Man was it hot, but luckily a little windy. Managed a couple bites, but my girlfriend had quite a few on, including a 2-3 lber. Found out from a ranger driving by that we were fishing 6 Mile!! :happy: No big deal, I just thought Morgan was the first one you come to on your left? No? Another great day. Stopped in at Juniper Beach on the way home cuz it was 36 degrees at 5:00 for some lunch and a swim. And then got stuck in Boston Bar until 11:00 because of the accident there earlier in the day in the tunnel. My condolences to the family of the victim.
