All lakes were stocked this summer by helicopter with 3-inch rainbow trout from the Crane Prairie redband trout stock.
There was a lot of snow in the wilderness areas but recent warm spell melted much of the snow. Best lakes to catch fish are Clover, Como, Harriette, Echo, Weston and South Pass in the Mountain Lakes Wilderness and Sonya, Margurette and Isherwood in the Sky Lakes Wilderness.
Best lakes for brook trout are Badger Lake (Sky Lakes Wilderness), which is a short hike from Fourmile Lake, and Clover Lake (Mountain Lakes Wilderness). Fishing will improve as the big brook trout look for places to spawn along the edges of the lake.
The biggest trout come from the bigger and deeper lakes of Harriette, Isherwood and Margurette.
