Both are headwater tributaries to the Lynn River and both contain wild brook trout populations. Both creeks are historically known for their brook trout fishing however they also have a long history of stocking. These stocking reports suggest put-and-take stocking of legal-sized trout occurred annually in both creeks during the 1950s.
