Here’s a little video taken with my point and shoot during our recent trip to the Lilooet river. Sorry About The Finger
It is one of the remote rivers accessible from the Valley by jet boat. At this time of year there are Cutthroat, Bulltrout, Springs and Steelhead in the system. I was most interested in catching one of the big Cutties that call the river home. A 20 incher isn’t uncommon in the Lilly. Cutthroat that size are huge in most rivers. 7 of us met at the boat launch and jumped in the 22 footer. A big boat is always best to make the 1.5 hour trip across Harrison lake. When the wind picks up it can be like the ocean and can double the length of the ride. Everyone managed to catch a fish. I was able to get a Bulltrout and 4 Cutties, one in the high teens. I haven’t received any pictures of fish from the crew and I’ll post some when I do. It wasn’t as productive as we had expected but just being there is the point.
Here are some of my pics from the day.
