Watch for changing water levels. iceman Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest corby Report post Posted May 29, 2009 Im not sure if there is public access to the Kam river just below the hydro dam anymore. I haven't been there in a few years but I heard people still go. Hydro isn't to fond of people going because of liability issues. The use to have no tresspassing signs from what I can recall. A decent spot to fish from shore is little dog. There is a hydro dam there as well. Watch the water levels. Apparently the change quickly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TerryK Report post Posted May 29, 2009 Hazelwood Lake, Cloud Lake, Lake Superior, Kam River, etc etc. Many places close by that have excellent fishing. A little footwork and some patience is all that's needed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Smack Um Report post Posted May 30, 2009 I would try the Kab,Kopka or Gull River up the spruce river road for walleye and if you have the time the Little Jackfish River past Armstrong for much better fishing though. There are also some good speck creeks around Lil Jackfish like Lee and Tosset to make it a more interesting trip. Check on road conditions though before venturing out on bushroads with the M.N.R. The Lil Jackfish River is about 40km past Armstrong a side road about a mile before the bridge leads to a parking area. From the parking area a trail leads down a canyon with about half a dozzen rapids and pools to choose from. I would stay on the main road and check the condition of it first by getting out and walking it when it rains it can become a trap. Also check the regs on this area before heading out!

Guest TerryK Report post Posted July 24, 2009 where is brule creek? ive been looking for some places for brookies to fish offshore Grab an MNR stocking list. Hundreds of lakes arew stocked with brook trout in our area, many are very accessible to shore fishing, you just have to do a bit of research. There's also the Backroads map book that gives detailed instructions. D&R Sporting Goods has them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
