Is anyone fishing today or able to give a lake report

I am running out of time before my Cochrane fishing trip so I can't wait much longer for perfect conditions...lake O is my backup plan , but hoping inner bay will be ok ??? I love the boat and have used and driven it , up north for several years , and I think the new suzuki will be a great addition

Just requesting that if anyone is near or have eyes on the inner bay Saturday morning ? if they would be kind enough to give me a lake / wave up date. I am hoping to finally get my new to me boat with new suzuki out for maiden voyage and motor brake in . Might go for perch after initial test...

Grimsby or Jordan is usually the place to go. My new motor has 11 min. On it . Just from the harbour test after installation As much as I want to fish.... my first trip or 2 will be more about breaking in the motor ...so in the future I can use full throttle if need to. 20 min warm up and...

I didn't realize that fisherman pier was open this early? Thought I saw somewhere opens in April?

I have tomorrow off work so I plan on taking my boat somewhere to start the motor break in Forecast don't look good for south shore or longpoint ....so thinking I'll go to Bronte or Oakville ....can always play in the channel ....but north wind shouldn't be an issue Is it worth taking rods or...

You might need to find an old timer or small engine maxhanic My guess is will need to pull the fly wheel and clean up the points ???? Not sure how many new generation marine mechanics will have experience with pre 1980 motors. ? There used to be a marine service guy near shallow lake that...

I won't be out for another week. From past experience I believe south shore would be more productive. So I would consider launching at Jordan or Port Dalhousie. Look at a map and head towards the creek and river mouths .... If you can find a warmer water coming into the lake ....troll the...

I just had a mast made for me , using a pair of big John riggers. I plan on using retractable ratchet straps one on each side going to the front . Hooking into a scotty rod holder base.

I specifically asked me to find a year round policy Probably reason I didn't go with same company as home and auto I might be paying more it's double my last boat but just figured it was because this boat is worth 2x my last one and 4x the hp

So I went thru my policy Found no mention of layup at all Went on the companies website ....looked at the FAQs One was : what is the layup policy And answer was there is not any layup on there polices.....however there are clauses for boats being moored year round and freeze up.

Thanks for the heads up ...I'll double check

I was told when I got my insurance policy it is for year round use ... from date of starting policy

I was wondering launch at old cut is open ?
