Fishing
Report: Dairy is sometimes subjected to winterkill, however
when this condition is absent for a couple years fishing can be
very exciting. Stocked with Rainbows annually, these trout will
often reach 3 lbs. or larger. Dairy, because of its elevation, fishes
well throughout the summer months. 3 small unnamed lakes can be
found near Dairy and are well worth your time to try them out because
the rewards could be great. Be sure to visit Fishbc.com
for angling information!
