Steady rain over the water today, with a decent SSW wind working the banks and pressure sitting still. On Polallie Lake, work shallow cover and weed edges first. A grinding day likely, with the morning worth the effort if any is. Quiet tactics only; the fish will not chase today. Shortening days concentrate the feeding into fewer hours.

Polallie Lake sits within Central Coast Regional District in British Columbia. The sea is 6.8 km distant. Around 93 hectares of surface means several distinct areas to work. The margin runs to about 5.5 km in total. By elevation it sits in the lower part of our British Columbia listings. 52 km away sits Bella Bella, the nearest town. Then Bella Coola, 87 km, and Kitimat, 166 km. It sits well inside its county, with no border complications.
No chart reached our records; the first cast is your sounding. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Fish documented in Central Coast Regional District include Chum salmon, pink salmon and Coho salmon. Some of the species recorded here are protected or tightly regulated, so check what may be targeted before you fish. On Polallie Lake a short move beats a long cast.
In an average year August sits at 14°C and January at 0°C. The year turns gently, without extremes at either end. It is not guaranteed even in a cold spell, so check yourself. The cooler months are the comfortable ones to fish here. Plan around that when you fish Polallie Lake. Overcast days spread the fishing across more hours.
Nothing in our records says who may fish here. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. There is no mapped parking or launch nearby, which keeps numbers down. Trout here take small spinners, spoons and, where fly water allows, a nymph or dry. Parking space is the usual limit rather than the bank itself. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. For a change of water, Ingram Lake is 3.1 km distant. Ask locally about Polallie Lake if anything is unclear.
