OK so where is Davis Lake would be my first question?  Then second would be what is the average size of the fish and third would be how easy are they to catch there, cause I suck at fly fishing!! ;D

About a 3 hour drive just before Merritt. Size is up to 4lbs. Most are around 2lbs. Also there are a few other lakes only mins away. Easy? Not easy but I highly doubt anyone getting skunked.

I'll try hard to make it now that we have a set date. I never fished there but will the Kokanee bite if you drink enough of them. ;D

be careful with your dates as it is tough to find a weekend in June where the interior lakes ie) Tunkwa aren't swamped with people.

I just checked out a report - it's pretty primitive. Cool. Bring lot's of water, liquid kokanee and toilet paper. Good times. :D

Is it a provincial site? Who cleans the crappers? Clean crappers are always a plus.

Is it a pay site? Are there picnic tables?

I would check the web site for provincial camp grounds. If it is a provincial site you would be able to book it there.
