Quinte Fishing

It was my understanding that the MNR trout stocking only took place in lakes with public access, which would make sense - but I am trying to find public access onto Red Horse lake and I've been told by the locals that there is no public access

The MNR puts an asterick beside the names of lakes with this exact issue.(AT LEAST FOR BROOK TROUT)The asterick meaning they will eventually not be stocked, again for this reason. Maybe check the stocking list to see if it your desired lake has one. ....In my map books, its listed as a rough two wheel drive access road(Ive never fished it, just many of the lakes around it .)....It also states due to recent access road improvements,....it has received significant pressure, and therefore the quality of fishing has declined. It also states, it has ,as you say, been stocked(not trout,but walleye). It is in my books as a lake containing four different species, no trout though?....I do see lake trout on a stocking list though, for Redhorse....(perhaps my book is mistaken?.......and things sometimes change?......Perhaps the access is no longer accessible?)
