There are trophy-sized kokanee present. Opening day at Suttle Lake provides plenty of action for kokanee. Most fishermen fish for them with eggs, nightcrawlers, and caddis imitations. Jigging is also productive. A boat will help you get around this large lake and will make finding the fish easier.
Flotation devices are the next best thing, until the waterskiers arrive in the summer.
Suttle Lake is also a popular place to swim, jet ski, sail, and camp. Waterski and swimming day-use areas are provided, and a group camp is situated at Scout Lake. Check the lakes chart and bring a good map. There are some hiking trails in the vicinity of Suttle, Blue and Scout lakes. All rights reserved.
