Fishing Mullion Lake in Central Coast Regional District, British Columbia

• Overview

  Mullion Lake lies in Central Coast Regional District, in British Columbia. The shore lies 4.1 km out. Surface area is around 77 hectares, which gives you real water without needing a boat. Some 6.2 km of bank gives room to move when the wind turns. It lies lower than most water we list in British Columbia. Start from Bella Bella, 62 km down the road. Vancouver sits 421 km out, and it is the nearest city worth the name. The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Mullion Lake

  Our records hold no depth for this water. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. County-wide records name Chum salmon, pink salmon and Coho salmon. Several of these carry legal protection or closed seasons; the rulebook comes before the rod. On Mullion Lake that means starting tight and working out.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect August near 15°C and January near 2°C on the long-run figures. The freeze here is occasional rather than annual. In a normal year the cover is thin and short-lived. March through May is the strongest run, with October and November a second stretch. Mullion Lake fishes to that pattern most years.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. This is a natural basin, not a dammed one. Mapping is blank for access, so scout the approach before committing the car. Trout here take small spinners, spoons and, where fly water allows, a nymph or dry. A landowner's word beats anything printed elsewhere. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. Should this one be busy, Agnes Lake is 2.9 km off. Check the current arrangement for Mullion Lake.
