  Seasonal averages run from 3°C in January up to 15°C in August. In milder years the surface never sets. It is not guaranteed even in a cold spell, so check yourself. February into May fishes hardest as the water warms. Larry Lake fishes to that pattern most years. Early and late in the day beat the middle for most of the year.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. Public data shows nothing built here, so treat the whole approach as informal. Trout here take small spinners, spoons and, where fly water allows, a nymph or dry. Provincial rules still apply whatever the bank status. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. If the gate is shut, Draw Lake at 3.3 km is the nearest alternative. Confirm access to Larry Lake locally before you travel.
