Give us a report on how you make out.I have a place twenty minutes from Pritchard.On Adams lake right where the river starts.Been so busy with renos have only fished the Adams in summer and a little casting from shore.When I get more time I look forward to exploring all the possibilities the area has to offer.I know at times the trout fishing in the Thompson can be very good.

See: http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/fw/fish/regulations/docs/0911/fish-synopsis_2009-11_region3.pdf

Go down to page 35, read the Thompson River section. Note the only time (October 1st - December 31st) when you need to have a class II and steelhead stamps IF there is an opening.
