There are several lakes in the Quincy Wildlife Area that are only reached by trail. Because they take a little extra effort to reach, they often offer better fishing. Two are very popular. Dusty Lake can be seen from the trailhead. I have often said that it is one mile down and three coming up, because it is very steep. This is a selective fishing lake, so no bait and barbless hooks only. It is popular with fly fishers, and many carry a float tube or pontoon boat down to fish it. It is stocked with rainbow, brown and tiger trout. Fish of 16 to 20 inches are possible on Dusty. I passed the Acient Lake trailhead the other day and the parking area was full of vehicles. People hike or even bike along this trail that is a four- to five- mile round trip. The lake is stocked with rainbow trout and also has a good population of largemouth bass. There are a couple of other lakes that are reached by trail. Cup and Crystal are the most popular. Both are planted with rainbow trout. They don’t get a lot of pressure and have a good number of carryovers in them.
