With only a half day of work and the sun still out decided to unpack the trout rod, dig some worms from the garden and head to Rice lake. On our way there we were slowed down by a big truck, turns out it was carrying LIVE TROUT! My girlfriend was pretty excited, and I was a bit too at the thoughts of some fresh meat in the lake. We fished hard for about three hours and only one bite on my rod, which I missed because I was too busy watching her rod, then I switched to a roostertail, and caught one fish on the second cast, the fish they stocked were pretty big closer to 15", but unfortunatly they only stocked it with 250. hatchery guy said that they might stock trout lake with a few tomorrow, and they will probably stock green timbers tomorrow as well.

That made me laugh pretty hard.... :D I bet you thought you were going to nail a few dozens today. ;D I know someone who would get jsut as excited when she sees fresh bagels being rolled out of the oven when shopping for food at Save-On Food and Drugs. ::) ;)

250? didnt they put 2000 in last year at this time?
-
So thats how you seduced her Rod. Some women need to be plied with liquor while others sucumb to fresh bagels ;).

this forum is awesome! only if I had found this site sooner....
thanks for the info Lucky. Where is this Rice lake that you are talking about?
and the trout lake? is it the one in nanaimo st and 20th ave?
many thanks
-
Rice Lake is located in North Vancouver
-
I think it is the one near lynn canyon. If so, it will require a little walk in the trails to get there.

Welcome Marlboro man. Rice lake is located in the Seymour conservative reserve (formerly known as Seymour Demonstration forest). To get there, take the second narrows bridge across to North Vancouver, take the Capilano College exit, then head up that road to the college, continue until you hit the gravel road. Continue on gravel road until you get to the gate, park at the lot, follow sign to the lake. The walk on the trail is about ten minutes. There is a dock where you can fish.

and a couple size 8~12 hooks and i'm all set. right ?
i'd better head up seymour this weekend. thanks for the tip.

went to Rice Lake today and tried for 3h. Only got a nibble once and that was all. Tried worm, trout bait, turbo trout bait, rooster tails...nothing worked...
Kinda disappointed. I haven't caught anything since last October.... :(
if things keep up like this I think I will fish in my 75G aquarium soon. hehe
-
The best bait for in there is Fish Assassin ;D
C.F
who is the assassin? and where can i pay top dollars for him? ;)
-
I'm right here. How much are you willing to pay for my tips ?

OMG...i thought we were talking about some sort of lure or spinner but apparently it is a real ASSASSIN! haha LOL
so what is your tip? i tried the dock, and the northern bench area.
it seems the lake is really shallow all around, so probably no big fish there eh?

Use cocktail shrimps
-
wow wow.
cocktail shrimps...?!
why not just hook up some "Power Bait Trout Dough(pink/yellow)" and a barbless size 8 hooks and float the bait out.
i'm sure that works well cause newly stocked trouts will be cruising around the shallow areas of rice lake.
um... yeh. that's my advice. just tryin to help :P
-
Don't buy Fish Assassin's tips, you want to catch fish don't you? ;)
Cocktail shrimp does wonders. Fish it 5 feet under a float. Powerbait would work too, just pricier. Roe sacs can be good as well. For these hatchery raised trout, bait isn't a big factor.

You're hilarious Rodney ;D ;D ;D
-
I would never eat a fish from there!!!
why is that? is the water there polluted or sthing?
-

-
Good one Ivan ! :)
-

Possibly because he can never CATCH one there :o ;)
-

-
Best to phone the hatchery for an answer.

Heck he can't even catch them from the Capilano
