Kakut Lake is located 12 km east on the Peoria Road, about 1 km pas the Woking turnoff on highway 2. The main lake is bordered by a rather long and narrow pond which is stocked with trout. A windmill at the far east end of the pond provides aeration all year so that trout are able to winter over. The larger lake is a Ducks Unlimited sanctuary for migratory waterfowl. For those who wish to camp, there is a small campground and playground area with a resident caretaker.
Unlike some other lakes and ponds in the region with limited shoreline access, the entire pond perimeter is accessilble for shore fishing, with new obstacles to interfer with back casts. Because the fish will rise relatively close to shore, presentation and long leaders are more important then distance, casting both with wet or dry flies as the trout seem to actively surface feeding almost all the time. The experienced or novice flyfisher who wants to cast her dry flies to rise will have little trouble catching them.
Although many small adult Mayfly imitations work at Kakut, the adult Midges seem to be much more cinsistent in attracting the trout. These small Midges, which are cream to white in colour, can be seenin sizes 18 to 20 on the surface from early May until October. The Halfback Nymph and Hares Ear Nymph in sizes 12 to 16 have also proved very effective, especially towards the evening.
Like other bodies of still water, dusk brings on a frenzy of surface feeding and hordes of mosquitoes descend on this pond from the main lake. No matter how good the fishing, fisherman without repellent are driven off quickly.
