Timing is key with this lake… My friends and I have caught tons of trout out of Cenaiko and I’ve seen some MONSTER trout too! Cenaiko Lake is easy to access with two docks on the south side of the lake. Before the ice comes, this lake is absolutely amazing for fly fishing and it’s usually a quiet spot. There is lots of opportunity to fish from shore too, but since the trout like to hang out on the deeper ends of the lake, it can be hard to cast to the trout with the right-sized lures. The fishing gets tough in the summer however, but the river is usually better when Cenaiko isn’t doing too hot.
Elk river is a great place to fish if you want to get a little wet and be in some strong currents! It’s super fun to just be out in the water and be fishing! Also it’s kinda a joy to try and land a fish while in the water I caught a couple good fish there when I was younger like a couple BIG pike and some small bass!!! Overall it’s a great fishing spot and I think that everybody will love it! Go follow my Fishbrain and YouTube @TheWildOutDoors
