Consider the following independent reviews from North America & Europe

"The
flight into Fortress Lake is the kind of exhilarating experience
that IMAX movies try to replicate"
~ Outdoor Canada 2006.
"My
first photographs were of Whitestone with a 4 pounder. Then I shot
Jensen with a 5 pounder. Then Jensen shot me with a 3 pounder. I
finished up by shooting Jensen and Whitestone with bookend 4
pounders. The fish were short bodied, deep and heavy."
"Brook
Trout. BIG Brook Trout! Super Fortress Brook Trout!"
"When
I first fished Fortress Lake in 1990, the fish averaged about three
pounds. When I fished it again in August, 2005, the fish still
averaged about three pounds, and the big ones went six or seven.
Those are huge brook trout. I don't think there's a
better place in North America to catch big brookies. Along with
the obvious attraction of the fishing, the helicopter trip into
the lake is like something from an IMAX movie, and the mountain
setting is utterly spectacular." "Fortress Lake is
one of the most memorable places I've visited in my angling travels, and
I recommend it highly for anyone seeking the opportunity to catch a
trophy - sized brook trout. If the gorgeous scenery doesn't get into
your blood, the brookies surely will! "There
were so many fish it began to seem like an Alfred Hitchcock movie - one
called The Fish instead of The Birds" "The
most serene, unspoiled, and beautiful spots on earth"
"One of the
rare, special places where the scenery, hiking, kayaking, and wildlife
viewing rival the most spectacular fishing. This is the most picturesque
brook trout fishery anywhere.” “This
is the best place in the world to fish… Bar none”
"Who
would have believed that there is a lake hidden high in the Rockies that
has some of the best Eastern Brook Trout fishing in all of Canada?"
"The
scenery is nothing short of spectacular"
"In
my travels, I can honestly say this is the most beautiful place I have
ever been" "This
is a fishery which offers perhaps the finest brook trout fishing in North
America, challenging the legendary waters of Labrador and Ungava. Anglers
can cast to pods of cruising trout or single out larger specimens. Crystal
clear waters, perfect for sight fishing."
"On more than one occasion we would be caught gazing at the splendor
that surrounded us. It was fly fishing in a post card, and we had the
entire lake to ourselves for the balance of the week."
"Powerful,
tough, and exceptional fighters. Quel poisson merveilleux!"
