Spray lake species
Has anyone caught anything there apart from lakers? I'm heading out there Saturday and although we'll be targeting lake trout, I wouldn't mind targeting something else if we get bored
Bonus points for tips and tricks

Watch that video. It will show you what depth they were catching at even.

I used to target cutthroat there.
There Were lots of 4-5 pounders 15-20 years ago.
They seem pretty rare now.
I suspect the lakers are a big part of that problem.

How would someone go about targeting these cutties? Assume there's any left?

Fishing shallower there's quite a few whitefish, but fairly small compared to what Im used to. maybe 16" (40cm) max. cutthroat are pretty rare these days, did some in the summer at the inlet of goat pond just below spray lakes. right in the channel.
