Call Lake Creel Census

Call Lake is a small, barren lake situated approximately six kilometers east of Smithers, B.C. It is a shallow lake with no inlet or outlet streams. Call Lake was stocked in the spring of 1983 and 1984 with brook trout (2000 and 3000 respectively) to provide a winter fishery in the Smithers area. The lake was opened to the public December 1, 1984. A creel census was conducted by the Fisheries Branch December 1984 through March 1985 to try and evaluate the success of this stocking program.
