Dutchy,

As has been stated, pick up a Backroads Mapbook, Stocking List and a GPS loaded with a chip......and you have everything you need to start exploring those lakes.....

For most some mode of transportation will be needed but once you have a quad or sled....the Hills are "yours to discover". :lol:

While I personally think the fishing is WAY overrated in the Hills, it is a beautiful place to fish once off the beaten path.

Brook Lake -Off the 511 via Luker rd, stocked with Browns;
Joe's Lake - Off Lavant Darling rd, apparently stocked with Specs;
Grindstone Lake - North of Pleyna, stocked with Splake;
Mosque Lake - North of Pleyna, stocked with Bows, contains lakers;
Little Mosque lake -same area, stocked with Specs;
Brule Lake - same area, lakers
Farren Lake - south of Maberly, stocked with Splake;

I'm sure there are bunches more that are less known. What I did last year was pack the truck with snacks for the day, took a Backroads book and a stocking list, and went for a drive. Found a bunch of lakes that I could launch my boat at, discovered some new launches, and some not so good launches that could never handle my boat, or were too "natural" for anything more than a tinny.

Good luck!
Good list of perch lakes there!!! :lol:

And to Jimmy's question about increased pressure..................YES. 1st hand knowledge of a few of those lakes getting more pressure after I mentioned them. One I can tell you has tripled with pressure...Now before someone goes off on me I can not say it is actually 100% tripled but maybe 80% sure it has. It is not only this though. It is the availablilty of more availablility of things on the net and the ease of searching for this availability. Did you know if I search for modern funeral attire i found this in 2 seconds....

Exactly! Why waste your time asking a fishing related question on a fishing related forum when you can do it yourself in double the time and quadruple the money. :lol:

Well, thanks to those of you that sent me a PM..

As I stated in post #1, I have the stocking lists and I have the Back-roads map. I have a GPS and I have the will to head deep into bug heaven in pursuit of fish. I am not looking to have anything handed to me, nor am I to lazy to "search" the net for info...asking this question is a form of gathering information, not much different then "searching" for it your way. What is a fishing forum for, if not to share information?

I was using logic, asking people that would actually have the information I seek. Searching google for a trout lake is like reading through a romance novel..takes a long time to sort through the crap.

Anyway thanks again to all those that are not elitist and shared some info.

These lakes are stocked for public use, and most have true public boat launches, so why is this information supposed to be kept a secret?

When an angler buys a fishing license, this permits them to fish these opportunities that the Ministry provides for that purpose.

My opinion, take it or leave it, is that some people on this site have a false sense of entitlement and ownership over what belongs to the entire public. :?
So why post the names of those lakes over the internet???....if people want to search for trout lakes, then they can do like I did and MANY people I know on this site did.......get the STOCKING lists and/or Backroads maps and go spend some weekends searching for the lakes you desire to fish!!!....
Yep, I'm inclined to agree. Not just about trout lakes though!
The problem isn't really an increase in angling pressure (though that certainly is an issue), it's all the non-angling activities that go along with naming spots on the www. The ever-growing whitebucket mafia has access to computers like everyone else :lol:
Basically, don't be naive. Not everyone who reads angling forums is an angler. I used to be naive but learned very quickly what happens when you blab on the internet.

Whats the Big Deal about giving out the name of a Trout Lake on the internet/Fish-Hawk... :? :?


Like hundreds and hundreds of dudes would flock right over to it and fish it out... :roll:
