great work guys on some nice browns. and pierroy, just keep on working at it, the fish are there, just need some incentive to bite. lol.

[Pierroy]

Ive gotta get back out there.the browns are hard to get.the jumbo perch are not around like a couple years ago.ive been getting some nice brookies around grande cache.gotta keep trying.

[Pierroy]

Anymore info on obed perch and browns would be awesome

[Feddy]

Went out last night for two hours and lost two and my little brother lost one and had couple bites. Zig zagged the channel banks medium speed. All sinking line out aprox. 90 feet of it. Ripping once in a blue moon using big leech pattern fly

[czoom]

Wow some very nice browns. Congrats. Wish I lived closer to that lake.

[Drewski Canuck]

Once had Brookies in it. Seems that they did not reproduce naturally, which is a real pitty. Used to be a good rainbow trout lake once as well.

That can happen when they stock it a few rainbows get mixed in

Also the creek flows to summit lake and that streams flows to the Athabasca river and what is in it rainbows

[coachman]

I caught a splake there in the 80's. F&W thought possibly a accident at the hatchery.

[Feddy]

A lady from Edmonton pulled two plus rainbows out of there last year in one day! Seen pictures and my buddy new before she told me because he likes to look in the fish cleaning bins to see what everyone's catching and he confirmed it with me. Lol

[Feddy]

Correction on last post " two ten pound rainbows at least"

[Pierroy]

Wow.do they still stock this lake.we ice fished there a few times.we sat in the tent and had a fish tv.saw 1perch then 2 large trout came right in side by side.black and white so not to clear.no other fish just thousands of shrimp.really tuff lake.gonna happen some day.

[Speckle55]

caught a Grayling too last year must of come up from the Athabasca River

David

[fishman]

i was fishing birch lake a few lakes ago for brookies and the people from shore caught a few rainbows so it does happen but also obed is in directly hooked to the athbasca river

[Feddy]

Went there today and caught some decent perch while trolling all that my 30 lb thrust could give with my brown trout streamer on caught six of the buggers. Then I got another 20 inch plus brown out of there. Man what a fight love it. Had hits all day from 7 till noon then went home. Try and get picks up. But man those bigger perch were sure aggressive today considering I wasn't even fishing for them. Oh we'll it was a little extra bonus for the day!

[Feddy]

Another 20 inch plus brown and one of the decent perch I caught today

[Feddy]

I found the bigger perch spread out all along channel on the north side starting from the middle of it going all the way back to the west end. Good luck Perroy. I noticed a lot of guys been fishing the far northeast bay and only getting smaller ones
