I’m going there this weekend bear hunting .  We always find  abandon camps.       It’s really bad when grab happens.      We have taken out 100s of pounds of garbage the surrey kids leave.  After the grad parties.     I’m sure we will be taking out more on Sunday. Also.     

I often see guys pull over and launch before the small bridge on shook road. There’s lots of people fish off highway 7 near the bridge at the inlet for the lake. I’ve only seen them catch very small bass or panfish

I ask again.. has anyone seen that guy with the funny mustache #34 ?

Thanks for the help guys, are there any spots along the lake where the fish hang out a lot? The small channels around hatzic bridge do seem like potential spots, but can't seem to find a suitable spot to launch my kayak.

As there was some discussion about what's going on the Squamish Valley here I found this article from the local newspaper interesting. Included are comments from Roger Lewis a member of the Squamish Nation. He also made some observations about anglers who fish the river which may surprise some readers:

Anybody see Auston Matthews tonight ??

Yes, he got the winner last night.

there is no boat launch per se but you can launch kayaks and other light craft.

You can hand launch boats at Neilson Regional Park. https://www.fvrd.ca/EN/main/parks-recreation/parks-trails/neilson.html

One downside is that you aren’t launching adjacent to your vehicle and it’s a fair walk across the grass to the water.

You’ll have to launch from shore. Lake right now is not too weedy yet but as the weather gets warmer there is lots of weeds. For bass and carp focus on the reeds that are there right now. The lake gets deep at the far north side. Haven’t fished it lots but mostly carp fish when I’m bored.

Hello everyone, for those who have fished Hatzic lake:
1) Where can I launch my kayak? Is there a dock or will I have to launch off from shore?
2) How weedy is the lake? Are there any areas with a rocky bottom or a lot of structure?
3) Any other tips/tricks on this lake?
Will be fishing for pretty much anything, but primarily bass, crappie, and trout.
Thanks in advance.
