NY State Outdoor writers fishing for brook trout




This past few days we hosted NYSOWA outdoor writers who came to Lake Placid to experience fishing . Our local guides took them fishing for a brook trout to nearby ponds, lakes and streams. After fishing they learned about the brook trout restoration from Bill Schoch, Regional Fisheries Manager, of the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Region 5, Ray Brook. They also enjoyed browsing our quaint Main Street, taking a scenic boat ride on Lake Placid and visiting Olympic Venues. They stayed at the Northwoods Inn located on Main Street, dined at the Northern Exposure and the Hungry Trout Restaurant.

Thank you to our local guides : Joe Hackett , Mike Gray , Daryl Crist and Dean Lavigne for providing great fishing services.
