Late spring and early autumn carry the year between them. That shapes the year on Kwonishi Lake.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. Mapping shows a campsite some 580 m from the water. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Provincial rules still apply whatever the bank status. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. For a change of water, Chibiabos Lake is 0.6 km distant.
