Butzen lake has just been stocked recently. Try fishing of the dock first or rent a canoe. Or if you want to hike a bit walk up to the first  cliff and fish off of that.

well if you have a boat, buntzen would be your best bet. The last 3 times iv went i have hooked landed 10+ trout. Use olive wooly buggers and half backs. If you dont have a boat fish off the dock using 1/2 ounce weight, 3 foot leader, and floating power bait. This method can be very productive. Also you can fish whonnuck lake and catch trout and tons of crappy. Last year around this time me, roeman, and adanac hooked 40+
