Fishn4Fun	Posted: 1/12/2011 12:18:32 PM Reply Nice catch. Too bad about the rod though.
jimmywits	Posted: 1/12/2011 2:09:26 PM Reply A variation of the disappearing rod scenario has happened to most of us I'm sure.I lost a fly rod off the back of the boat on St Mary's lake years ago, and had to endure watching a big trout jumping around until it broke off!!
kelso	Posted: 1/13/2011 11:21:04 AM Reply Nice shots abe. Do you use a hut or just sit in the open?
abe	Posted: 1/13/2011 6:03:01 PM Reply i just sit on a five galon bucket they work good and you can carry your gear in it too.
Ian1974	Posted: 1/18/2011 6:33:46 PM Reply nice fish. Since you have been out lately can you report on the ice conditions. that would be great. I would love to take my kids somewhere not too far from West Kelowna. Cheers, Ian
On The Dry	Posted: 11/13/2017 7:51:06 AM Reply Hey Abe are you from Langley bc ?? is coquihall lakes frozen ,is there a way in the back way instead of the lodge way ? any help be great
cagey	Posted: 11/13/2017 5:15:25 PM Reply Not sure if Abe is around these days to answer your question. I have never fished Coq. Lakes but I doubt that it is frozen yet. I live out of Chase and the lakes were starting to ice over when it warmed up. I suspect the same on the Coq. No idea re:access other than via the lodge.
