Massive Brook Trout Fly fishing Trips in British Columbia Canada
There are few fish that look as colorful as a Brook Trout. Combine that with their vigorous fighting abilities, aggressive feeding patterns and you will have an incredible sport fish to target while Fly fishing. In the secret lake we fly fish for Brook Trout it is not uncommon to see fish over 5 LBS each and everyday. The shoreline is alive with Scuds, Dragonfly Nymphs, Damselfly Nymphs, tadpoles, Chironomids and Water boatmen. It’s like a Smorgasbord for trout and when it comes to fly fishing its tough to make a mistake when matching the hatch. There is just that much to choose from.
Fly fishing for Brook Trout in BC
I personally love stripping large Nymphs when Fly Fishing for Brook Trout. When Trout take a Nymph, it seems as if they are trying to kill it on impact. This can account for some extreme strikes. Strikes that if you are not holding on to your fly rod firmly could separate you from it. On impact, Brook Trout are known for large runs that seem endless at times. Once close to your boat they put on an aerial display, leaving everything on the line. Some of my fondest memories of Fly Fishing are of chasing these very Brook Trout on light lines. It is quite a feat to land these magnificent fish on either a 3 wt or 4 wt fly rod and line.
The Brook Trout in the picture above is roughly 24″ in length and weighed approximately 5 1/2 pounds. I hooked another fish similar in size and it shook the hook as I extended my net. Although this was the largest fish I landed this day we were only at this lake for 2 hours. We caught lots of smaller Brook Trout ranging in size from 14″ – 18″ with an average weight of 1.5 – 2 LBS. Brook Trout can reach a staggering 8 LBS in this lake. This being said there is a healthy population of up and comer Brook Trout for years to come. Combine a healthy population of fish with a great food source and that is a recipe for Massive Brook Trout.
