Pharoah Lake - kinds of fish?

[upstate]

I am planning to take a camping trip to pharoah lake in the early spring, and will bring an inflatable fishing boat. I am wondering if anyone here knows what kind of fish there are in the lake? I know that it is stocked with brook trout, but is there anything else?

Pharaoh is dominated by Lake Trout. Other species include Brook Trout and Sunfish/Pumpkinseed, and Bullhead. There are various other baitfish species as well. They have stocked the heck out of it with Brook Trout in recent years, but I haven't heard of anyone catching any...I think the Lakers hear the chopper coming and get ready to have a feast. Anyway, it's personally my favorite place in the park, and maybe anywhere. Have a good time. I frequent the area in early Spring as well, so perhaps we'll run into each other. -GG

Thanks

Thanks for the information, if you are up there and you see a multiethnic group of campers with a sevylor fish hunter 250 give me a shout and I'll take you out on the lake.

A what?

I'll be paddling around in my Hornbeck, and I'll likely be sporting my lucky mint green Notre Dame cap. Helped me land a four pound brown last spring! (But not at Pharaoh, where fishing can be tough). I'll be fishing as well, though.
