Nita Lake is located in an area of Whistler referred to as Creekside. Nita Lake is stocked annually with rainbow trout and is managed as a put-and-take fishery. The fish that are stocked are 3N (triploid) fish. These trout put energy into growth versus spawing and therefore have a potential to grow much faster offering anglers larger fish quicker. The lake is fed by Whistler Creek and drains south into Alpha Lake through a small creek which eventually makes it's way into Millar Creek and finally into the upper Cheakamus River. Fishing at the mouth of the creek can prove productive in the evenings during the heat of the summer!
