At given times of the year, fishing for big brook trout at Fortress Lake is remarkable. In fact, the sight fishing opportunities can be mind boggling, as fish move about. The following photo illustrates the point. The slow moving pod of giants (the fish are 3 to 5 or 6 pounds) was a little wary as the wind had died down, but the fish to the left of the indicator, to the edge of the pod of trout, was coming in to the zone. About 10 seconds after the photo was taken the bobber plunked down and a few minutes later a 5 pound brookie was landed. There were about 18 trout in the photo, with two other straggling sub pods 10 yards away.
