alturis is one of my favorite lakes in the stanley basin, I have never fly fished it just a bait caster. I fish the inlet right about the ledge were it drops off. I wade out untel i can see it then back up a bit. There are huge bull trout in there. I mean huge. I know a guy that caught one 22 lb. There use to be alot of kokanee until they put the bull trout on the endaged species list now they get munched pretty good. I have never caught a rainbow out of there but they could be in there. If you are wanting to fly fish i suggest valley creek which flows right threw stanley its atifical lure only. I always use salmon eggs in the lake. The guy that caught the 22 lber swears by roe.
