Kikomun Creek needs a clean boundary in the guide. The park and nearby lakes are real recreation anchors, but this page is for the creek. BC Parks notes rainbow and smallmouth in Surveyors Lake and kokanee in Lake Koocanusa; those facts should stay with those waters unless a creek source supports moving them here.
The water itself
The local model maps about 18 km of Kikomun Creek with 63 fish records. Its position near Kikomun Creek Park and Lake Koocanusa makes access tempting, but creek-specific fishing access still needs verification.
The fish
The creek signal includes westslope cutthroat, brook trout, rainbow, bull trout, sculpins, redside shiner, kokanee and lower-valley species. That is a mixed corridor signal, not a promise of easy dry-fly water.
How it is fished
For the creek, start with small Elk Hair Caddis, Adams, ants, beetles, Hare's Ears, Pheasant Tails, small buggers and baitfish/sculpin streamers near lower water. For the park lakes, use separate lake notes.

Guides and access
No dedicated Kikomun Creek guide page was found. Use BC Parks for park access, and verify whether the creek itself is legally and practically fishable before building a day around it.
