I've fished Pine lake many times over the past few years. The hike can be tough, but the fishing used to be worth it. The past few times up here have been awful, no hits and nothing even rippling the surface. I don't know if this lake is ever stocked, but I used to limit out on nice 12in cutthroat and rainbow and now I can't even get a bite. The water level is way up, you have to wade the last 150 yards to fish the lake.
I'm not hiking back up this particular mountain again until there is a better chance of a bite. If you are into hiking, Pine and Cedar lakes are very beautiful. The cedar plank trail around the east side of pine lake is now completely underwater.
Good luck All.
