Fishing
Report: Binta supports a good Rainbow and Lake Char
fishery. Much like Uncha Lake, Rainbows will reach up to 2+ lbs.
while Char are capable of 20+ lbs. Deep trolling with spoons or
plugs is your best bet for landing one of these monsters. Rainbows
are caught either by trolling smaller lures such as flatfish or
with spinning gear. Flies (especially attractor patterns) work
well in the shallow bay areas either by casting or trolling.

for angling information!
Note:
Always check your current BC Fishing regulations before you start
fishing a new lake.
