Fishing
Report: This large reservoir lake provides a good Rainbow
fishery with trout that sometimes reach up into the 5 lb. range.
Trolling small lures, flatfish or spinning gear seems to the method
of choice however fly fishermen have also met with good success. Be sure to visit Fishbc.com
for angling information!

Lakes
Ern
Lake - Ern, at 2 ha. (5 ac.) in size, is a very small
lake however it contains a good population of stocked Eastern
Brook trout. Lying just 1 km. to the west of Hydraulic Lake, access
is gained via branch road just beyond the north end of Hydraulic.
There are no campsites at the lake, however nearby Browne and
Hydraulic Lakes both have BCFS campsites.
Note:
Always check your current BC Fishing regulations before you start
fishing a new lake.
