Fishing near Kelowna, British Columbia

Kelowna sits in the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia's interior, flanked by Okanagan Lake right in the city and surrounded by a network of lakes and creeks. The area is known for kokanee salmon and rainbow trout fishing across its major lakes, with Okanagan Lake and Kalamalka Lake among the marquee destinations. Smaller highland lakes on the plateaus above the valley hold Pennask-strain rainbow trout, and guided charters operate out of Kelowna for those targeting kokanee, lake trout, and bass.
