More familiar with the spectacular Cavern L Park north of this area which was also a Brook trout Lake.
FYI overflight clip of angler on Cavern L was use in the original "Ontario Yours to Discover" tourism ad 1980's.

Why is everyone attracting so much attention to these lakes.They have an abundance of fish in them.They are almost untouched very little fishing pressure and not very well known until now with all this publicity.Most real speckle trout fishermen keep there good spots a secret.It is no secret now tha

I am wondering how on going management of traplines will be effected by these new guidelines for proposed enhanced area. Will new trails cabin construction be allowed?
Also will there be access for disabled fisherman/women in some areas?

I support the creation of the Amethyst Highlands Fish and Wildlife Enhanced Management Area.
Further, please increase the area of protected land in Ontario.
Very good proposal. It is the right thing to do. Please follow through and approve it even if industry Pushes back. Also I don’t understand the secondary lake rules. Mackenzie lake has been fished for brook trout and lake trout by many people for more than a century . same with Nalla lake.

This has nothing to do with protecting and area, it has all to do accessing more timber. This is a unique area with self sustaining brook trout. Not many left !!!! Indigenous species.
I don't see the need to re visit this ever 5 years.
It's time to put this into a Provincial Reserve.
I would like to applaud the MNRF for this decision to change the CLUPA concerning the Amethyst Highlands(old brook trout triangle). This change to an EMA will surely go a long way to protecting the brook trout populations in these areas.

This area is much too large and all encompassing. Reduce the area. Allow harvesting in the area and ensure that the roads and bridges are destroyed. Do not take any harvestable area away from the logging companies.

I question the rationale and science behind this proposed EMA. A close look at this area on Google Earth and the rationale, not to allow any new access or trails, aesthetics etc , clearly identifies what is really going on here.

as a nearby landowner I don't support an enhanced management area as proposed. as an Ontarian I don't support restricted access to our natural resources whether no new roads or no harvesting as the only thing these types of parks promotes is future fires.

this is an excellent proposal and must be actioned...it is a truly unique area and so close to built up areas...this will help ensure the survival of naturally reproducing brook trout lakes in ontario...the MNRF is doing the right thing and should be applauded...
this is great legislation!..well done MNRF!..please follow through with this...your Bio's have done a lot of work verifying the science behind this...this is the next best thing to closing the lakes in the winter...well done!..keep up the good work...
This proposal includes restrictions to activities within 600 meters of brook trout lakes. This runs counter to the emulation of natural disturbance found in the Forest Management Guide for Boreal Landscapes.
