Brown Trout

• Lakeveiw Generating Station, Cawthra Rd and Lakeshore area. Fish the warm water discharge area.
• In the fall, you will find resident brown trout in the Grand River near Elora. Please check for special regulations on these waters.
• Lakeview is open year round. Guys cast lures, float roe off the bottom and use floats with salted minnows There is plenty of parking both at the skimmer and out at the gap.
• Burlington Canal. The area of the north shore running along Burlington Beach and up toward Stoney Creek is productive for Browns in the Spring.
• Spoons are the most popular lure for shorebound anglers, however try Storm Thundersticks, Rapala Husky 13's, and Bomber Long A's.
• You'll find Brown Trout upstream and downstream from Sylvan Glen. Unfortunately, the river is usually overrun with baby rainbows all summer.
• Belfountain. Small trout, mostly browns. You can use bait, as long as you are not in the Forks of the Credit Park (or the other Special Regs section downstream). Try small spinners (size "00") or tiny Mr. Twister type lures, or small worms like Red Wigglers.  There are lots of picnic areas. A great place is the Belfountain Conservation Area. Try fishing the West Branch of the Credit which flows through the C.A.
