i fish around maple ridge, mission i was wondering is there any lakes up by whistler area that are worth a shot,  i got a 4wd pickup so i can get into most places. just name a few lakes by that area and that would be greatly appreciated.

How about trying the lakes up westside Harrison? Some need 4wd, but great fishing

If you got a 12 ft boat you can try Anderson Lake, nice bows in there.

lots of info on local lakes to fish on the fishingwithrod.com site. http://www.fishingwithrod.com/articles/region_two/index.html
I wouldn't bother going to these lakes until they're stocked this spring

I have fished some of those Whistler area lakes and found nothing but small fish, not worth the trip in my estimation. As for Whonnock. Give it a month or two. American Coachman and Professor work well in April. Tom Thumb works well on May evenings. Minnow patterns and Baggy shrimp in June. Black Gnat, Trico, and Royal Coachman on July and August evenings. The lake can deceive you it is not deep, 80% of the lake is one big rolling shoal from 5 to 15 feet. If I were fishing it now I would work Chironomid or Bloodworm tight into the brush close to shore.

much of whistler water is still frozen.  Mamquam and Lower Cheakmus rivers are good bets for trout.  If green lake is fishable then it will hold some of the larger averages for fish size in the whistler area.  Lots of Bulls in the 2-4lb. range.  Look for the creeks feeding green lake and you are bound to have some success.  Lost lake is truly a small fish lake as is Nita.  Summer time float tubing in Alta lake can sometimes yield great results.

That's the 2nd lake west of pemberton, right?  Just past Seton Lake?  I've found it on google maps.  I think I'll head up there to explore next month.

Anderson lake is a great spot in the summer!  We often camp at the red barn camp site throughout the summer and always enjoy good fishing.  It is fairly large and deep so it takes a boat to fish effectively.  Great access to the lake from the town of D'arcy.  Good luck!

Family used to have a cabin at anderson lake. very large lake past pemberton. however its best if you have a boat as i have found trolling to be the most succesful way to catch. nice kokanees and rainbows to be had. bring your downrigger and dollies can be found too.
