Fishing
at Escott Bay Resort, Anahim Lake, British Columbia
British
Columbia's West Chilcotin offers some of the finest fishing anywhere.
Whether you like to troll, spincast or flyfish, the choice is yours.
Anahim
Lake is very productive and lends itself to fly fishing due to
the aquatic life with many bays and weed beds. The fish range
from ¾ to 2 pounds or larger.
The
Upper part of the Dean River flows through Nimpo Lake and Anahim
Lake before making its descent to the Pacific. This river is a
Class II water and has special restrictions. Fly fishing this
stream is a must for every fly fisherman and opens June 16.

a larger trout, which will weigh up to six pounds or more.
