This is also the road that leads to Cochin, Taltayoko and Choelquolt Lakes.

Nearby Lakes

Cochin Lake - Cochin Lake, located just south of Eagle on the Tatlayoko Lake Road. Branch east onto the Chilko Lake access road for about 1 1/2 km. (1 mi.) and then turn north (left) and travel about 1 km (1/2 mi.) to a BCFS campsite on the lake. Wild rainbows that average in the 3 to 4 lb. range are usually caught with trolling gear (especially with Hot Shots and flat fish), but are equally attracted to flies. 10 pounders are not all that uncommon, making Cochin a lake well worth visiting.

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