Outlet Brook is the discharge stream from Mirror Lake in Lake Placid village — it runs roughly a mile from the lake's northeast corner down to the Chubb River, cutting through residential areas and backyards before entering state land near the confluence. You'll cross it on NY-86 just east of town, and again on Averyville Road if you're heading toward the High Peaks trailheads. It's a small, quick stream — more a connector in the regional watershed than a destination — but it holds brookies in the lower, wooded stretches where the channel widens and deepens enough to give fish cover. If you're staying in the village and want to wet a line without driving anywhere, walk the Chubb River Trail upstream from its trailhead and fish the last hundred yards of the brook before it joins the river.
