Burks Falls fishing below damn

[fromking]

Recently moved up to the area and been taking my four year old to the docks below the damn in burks falls for some after dinner fishing. I thought this would be a good area, but we’ve been skunked every time. Anyone familiar with this area and know if there are fish here? Or does anyone have any tips on where to take a four year old shoreline fishing in this area?

 

thanks

There is pike there and perch . Get yourself a canoe or small tinny and fish Doe.

we stayed at Pinehave Cottages this summer (Jack Lake). If you take the road to pinehaven from Burks Falls you will come to a bridge not too far from town. The river is moving fast there but off the right hand side of the bridge there is an eddy. I caught nonstop fish out of that little pool right off the bridge. They were only rockbass, sunfish and some tiny smallies...but any kid would be fine with that! If I remember correctly you can carefully walk down and fish from the shore too...I just chose to fish off the bridge. Worm under bobber with 3 feet of line gets em every time.
