About Stuart Lake

Anglers know Stuart Lake as one of the lesser-trafficked lakes of British Columbia, Canada. The standard playbook on a lake this size is to start shallow at first light, work outward toward deeper water as the sun climbs, and circle back to the shallows before dusk. Surface activity at Stuart Lake is a useful tell — boils, swirls, and rising baitfish point straight at the predator zone.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Lake trout

    Target deep water near structure or drop-offs, especially during warmer months, and vary your retrieve until you find what works.

  • For Rainbow trout

    Vary your retrieve speed when using spinners to find what triggers a strike; sometimes a slow, steady retrieve works best, while other times a faster, erratic retrieve is more effective.

  • For Lake char

    Target lake trout in deep, cold water during the summer months, focusing on areas with structure or drop-offs; use a fish finder to locate schools of fish and baitfish.
