Quesnel Lake
Quesnel Lake, BC | David JacobsonQuesnel Lake, east of Likely, BC, is considered the world’s deepest fjord lake and the deepest lake in BC with a maximum depth of 511m (1,677 ft). Here mature rainbow trout can reach up to 20 lbs, making an excellent location for freshwater fishing. Due the remote location, Quesnel lake offers the ability to fish right from shore and along tributary streams, or to explore the lake by boat, kayak, canoe, or paddleboard during the summer months.
