With its clear waters and
lush surroundings, this
idyllic lake serves as a great
place for relaxation and
fishing. From Rainbow
trout, and of course, the
Mackinaw lurking below,
you can also find some
great bass and panfish.
There was a time not too
many years ago, when an
angler could get into a
mess of Kokanee, now the
mystery is where did they
go? Are they still swimming
here? Deer Lake offers a
bounty of opportunities
for anglers to test their
skills and unwind amidst
the beauty of the great
outdoors.
