completely impossible. According to ESRD and ACA findings there are only a small number of burbot in this lake. Neither myself or any other members of my fishing club have ever hear so much as a rumour of any other fish being caught here in 12 years. http://www.discoverthepeacecountry.com/htmlpages/musreaulake.html reports "the park attendant claims the rainbow trout, bull trout and burbot are starting to make a come back" but this is false.

Rare to catch. The Bulls come up from the outlet creek. Wish I had a camera that day. The Rainbow Trout yes I have a pic of a nice 6 lber. Bulls have been confirmed by electro fishing. The person in charge (wish I could remember his name) was the fellow in charge of The Athabasca Rainbow research
