Yes, they'll work but you probably be given a ticket because there is a year round bait ban in effect.

BAIT BAN

And just to add, unless they have changed the regs, the area below Daisy Lake Dam to a point near the suspension bridge is CLOSED to fishing (due to the chemical spill, although Caustic Soda doesn't flow upstream).

And yeah, BAIT BAN.

No worms, no roe, nothing scented.

The Upper Cheakamus River (between Daisy Lake Dam and Lower Falls) has been closed since August 2005 to ensure preservation of the resident trout population after the chemical spill. Proposal for reopening this catch and release fishery has been put forward by the ministry and it will very likely to reopen this summer (August). Stay tuned.
