Fish Population
Lake Aldwell was home to a population of kokanee sockeye salmon from Indian Creek and Lake Sutherland which, unable to access the Pacific Ocean used the reservoir as their "ocean" during their adult lives. These salmon access the reservoir via Indian Creek and spawn in Lake Sutherland, just below Lake Crescent. The lake also contained landlocked bull trout, rainbow trout, and a population of introduced eastern brook trout.
