hey chevy55. try for sure buntzen lake and sasamat lake in poco. other good ones are lafarge, mill in abby and allouette in maple ridge.all these lakes get the lions share of stockings from the hatchery. Ahem...i would however avoid latimer lake in surrey. its been neglected by the city and has seen better days. Its was a good spot in the late nineties though.

I never have luck on buntzen on sasamat. for trout, I go up mamquam forest service road, about 10 km. theres a bridge, shortly after the hydro station, fish there.
I don't really know any good spots myself, most are crowded. In the lower mainland, that is. I think there are nice spots near harrison hot springs, hope, etc. But haven't really explored them yet.
Another good place to try is Albert Dyck Park in abbotsford. It's close to the border and the airport. I doubt there's trout, but there are lots of bass. You'll be sure to catch some (i fished from the west side). Not a very scenic spot though.

I do a lot of my local fishing around Harrison. If you go up the west side of the lake there are some decent lakes. Francis is good little lake as well as Wood. Weaver is supposed to be ok but i have never fished it as I usually fish smaller lakes. You won't cathc anything huge, but i have pulled trout up to 2 pounds out of those lakes. They aren't very smart which makes them easy to catch.
If you want to get anything real good you have to head up the towards merrit area. The Kane valley has some awesome lakes withc big fish(up to 10 pounds). It is about a 3 hour drive from the lower mainland but the is really good road access and lots of camping

You need to travel about 2 and a half to three hours to get into lakes that have decent size (20 inch plus)trout in them, Pike mountain lake area, North of Princeton in the mountains, or the Merrit area.

You don't need to travel that far to get nice trout. Chevy55, e-mail me @ soball@hotmail.com I'll let you in on a couple spots that produce pretty good for me.
