Have never heard of trout in Burnstick...mostly pike, perch and the odd walleye...Stocked brook trout in Birch...Beaver closed for the winter...sk

the trout are few and faw between but a 4lb average size we fly fish there in the summer in a day excpect to land a "trout" or none at all but i use leech flies when the hatch are on and if i dont get the trout i slam the small pike and walleye and perch

Burntstick for Pike, Perch and occasional walleye
Birch for Brookies best in winter
Alford Lake for Rainbows. Aeration on so thin ice
Phyllis for Rainbows
Dickson for Rainbows
Beaver is closed to ice fishing (Trophy Management Lake)

Any suggestions for what area of the lake on Birch, and ice conditions if anyone has been?? Thanks for your help fellas!! Keep your lines tight!!!

cow lake bows just get fished out quickly but if your gonna try you luck on trout use shrimp! small silver/gold spoons. or a prince nymph fly
