Report Summary: Atlin Lake, located in the extreme northwestern corner of British Columbia and in the Yukon (Fig. 1), is one of a chain of lakes that are recognized by anglers for their large lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) and for tributary production of Arctic grayling (Thymallus arcticus). A project funded under the auspices of the Yukon River Basin Study was commissioned to report on the sport fishery of Atlin Lake. The results from this survey will in part form the basis for future management decisions regarding maintenance (regulation) of present lake trout and grayling populations. Aspects of the Atlin Lake fisheries were first discussed by Withler (1956) who described the limnological conditions of the lake and the fishery with a specific reference to changes that might result from hydroelectric development. The objective of this study was to collect detailed information on angler origin and distribution in the fishery, their catch and effort expended. Life histories of Atlin lake trout and Arctic grayling were also investigated.
