Connected to Placid via a man-made channel Burns is a little gem. Fish the edges slowly and you will catch fish; mostly large mouths. Very little traffic as most people tend to fish the other lakes of the Tiger Cat Flowage. Great for a quiet evening or early morning trek... enjoy! Have not had much success in the middle.
