To ensure that everyone – from avid anglers to beginners – has access to freshwater fisheries, we’ve been investing in trails, boat launches, and fishing docks by leveraging funding and support from provincial and regional governments, and from local fishing clubs.
Recent infrastructure development in Merritt and the Nicola Valley received financial support from the Province of B.C. (under the Community Economic Recovery Infrastructure Program’s Destination Development program), and investment along the Fishing Highway 24 was supported by a provincial grant to assist with economic development and recovery.
New docks have been placed over fish-attracting shoals or drop-off areas at lakes near urban centres and in regional and provincial parks throughout the province. To see if one of these new docks, or an existing dock, is located at a stocked lake near you, visit our Map and select the Fishing Dock filter. In addition to the 100+ docks shown on the map, we’ve also helped install docks on lakes we don’t stock such as Little Heffley, Spectrum, Janice, Charlie, Nicola, Proctor, Okanagan, and Walloper.
