I'm new to the forum, so please excuse me if I missed any discussions on this topic. I'm also new to fly fishing, and I'm looking for advice on flies for ice-out brook trout in Algonquin Park.
I assume streamers would work well, but can I expect any insect hatches at that time of year? Or is there a pattern that works in any event? Any help would be appreciated.

I'm no expert, but from what I have heard 2 of the flies that keep coming up is the simple wooly bugger and the mickey finn. Any attractor fly should work as well. What lakes are you going to be fishing? I will be there at the same time.

I've been loading up on both of those, as well as some others. 40 lakes, 8 days. Magnetawan to Catfish.
