it's a nice lake to fish, caught a 19" 2 pound rainbow there last year, i think the biggest trout pulled out of that lake was a 48" Dolly Varden, at least thats what i heard but it was probably about 24" lol, a 4 foot dolly would be the world record

not sure, it was the only one he saw, but he only went 1 day, so those are pretty good harvest/hours hunted numbers, LOL.

I'm pretty sure me and my buddy heard one last year. It was probably 9:30- 10:00 at night we are sitting round the campfire drinking beer and down the road we hear what sounds like a woman scream. We were a couple miles further on up from any of the other hunters that had camped down low so it obviously wasn't a woman that made that.
