These days it's rare that anyone will publicly comment on fishing on a specific small lake. Kump is stocked and it has quality water regulations - no ice fishing, a 2 fish limit and a bait ban so it likely still has some good fishing. Do a search and find contour map of the lake (https://www.anglersatlas.com/i/pdf/legacy/ca/BC/00092101.pdf )that should help you decide where to fish. Good spots to try are the edges of drop off and the points of shoals in deep water. Check out online source for lures and flies such as the common staples of chironomids, scuds, leeches, dragonfly and damsel nymphs. You can also call a local outdoor shop in Princeton or Merritt and ask for suggestions or drop in and buy some flies or lures they recommend for that lake.

It’s correct.

There are 3 measuring stations in the Skagit basin, not one.

you'd have to check the specific stations but many are monitored remotely via electric sensor and radio, so the probability of 'rookie' errors are low. That also ensures consistency  from year to year.

It's true April was warm and dry while this month so far has been cooler with more normal moisture. The great snow melt watch continues. Certainly more exciting than watching paint dry! LOL

Comments about arson are unwarranted and irresponsible IMO. They have zip to do with the discussion.

I don't believe the 5% in the Skagit is correct. I'm wondering if they changed spots in recent years. Sometimes for the purposes of access and safety they have to find a new spot. Maybe they let some rookie choose the new spot and didn't consider the location.... For example, perhaps the measurement spot used to be in the shade and now its on a rocky outcrop that gets sun all day.

It’s correct.

There are 3 measuring stations in the Skagit basin, not one. The snow levels for the basin are an aggregate of all three. For your theory to hold water (or snow 😀), said rookie would have to have moved more than one station to an unfavourable location. Not very likely.

 I suggest there’s more liklihood of elite climate activists meddling with the stations to advance their corrupt agenda than there is in your rookie theory.

April was warm and pretty dry...especially during the second half.
Regardless, there is no point in worrying. Arson is becoming commonplace in our forests, so there will be more forest fires in general. It's extremely sad the elite climate activists are paying people to go out into the forests to start fires....just so they can forward their corrupt agenda.

what a difference a month makes.

The May 1 report has been released and snow pack levels have declined .

"The provincial average for May 1st at all ASWS sites is 73% of the period of record median, decreasing from 77% on April 15th. The Fraser River basin stations averaged 79%, which decreased from the April 15th value of 82%...As of May 1st, 15% of the total snowpack at the ASWS sites has melted since the peak. This is a higher percentage of melt by May 1st from peak snow than recent years (2024: 4% snowmelt, 2023: 5% snowmelt, 2022: 0% snowmelt)".

As of the 1st the average snow weather composite is only slightly higher than  May 1 2024.
