brook trout recommendations

[JohnL]

I know this is a walleye site mainly, but I am looking for recommendations for a brook trout fishing trip, out of fort frances of Thunder bay areas. would consider anything from camping to fly-in lodges. Any lakes rivers or streams would be considered. Love fishing trout in streams! thanks.

Lots of good Brook Trout action to be had in the Thunderbay Area, many of the smaller lakes are full of them.

I would seriously check out a trip to Nipigon. It is my understanding that there is a brook trout sanctuary on the lake. You have to fish catch and release, but a lot of 2-5 pound fish. Also, other rivers and lakes around Nipigon are famous for their brookies.

Although not a large site, you may find "Brook Trout Heaven" of some interest:

Thanks for the replies.
I have heard great things about the Nipigon river. Is it mainly fished by boat, or is wading possible? Is fishing good in its tributaries?
Also, what times of the year are good? I am avaible to fish in august, but in the future, I would plan a trip for the peak fishing seasons.
