Not sure about Beauvais, but Lees just before was fishing well a couple of weeks ago. Nothing big buts lots of action.

Just 3 kms south of hwy 3 on the hwy that goes to West Castle ski hill. Lake on west side with cottages around it, right beside the hwy. Lots of small fish, lots of fun. I usually troll a muddler minnow.

You could troll a stick and still catch fish.. but don't expect anything over 1lb... You'll be super lucky to even get close to the 1lb mark actually, just little guys.. they don't get a chance to grow because people take home stringers of .5lb trout, see it every time.. sigh.

I've caught about half a dozen browns out of Beauvais over the years, the biggest one was probably close to 3 pounds.

Beaver Mines might be worth considering two as we were catching a few nice ones ice fishing in January. I was there a few weeks ago and the fishing wasn't great that day, although the wind was pretty brutal for a guy in a float tube, so I didn't stick it out that long.

I hear ya, driving time can be a disappointment when it comes to fishing. At least your outside enjoying the weather!
