Fishing
Report: Due to the increased use of Cultus Lake for other
recreational activities, fishing pressure has declined in recent
years. Trout may reach over 3 lbs. with trolling and fly fishing
being the most successful methods used. Cultus Lake has an excellent
spawning area and stocking was last conducted in 1987. Be sure to visit Fishbc.com
for angling information!

Shoreline:
Gentle sloping, sandy beaches surround most of this highly popular
lake. The large number of small coves and entry streams provide
