My girlfriend and I went up north this weekend, we went up to barry’s bay, stayed in a yurt and did some hiking… we went out on a stocked laker lake but in 3 hours or so and 3 different spots we didn’t mark a single fish.
Instead of trying another lake up there we decided to try Simcoe on the way back home. Got there and set up fishing at 2 pm, ended up being non-stop action the whole afternoon, only moving once and luckily staying on the fish.
A lipless crankbait was the ticket for most aggressive fish, but anything that wouldn’t respond to that was tricked into biting with a tiny tungsten with a spike plastic that worked fantastically. We ended up with 50 jumbos and finished fishing just before 6 and walked back. The biggest was 12 3/4, and there was two that size and a ton in the 10-12 inch range. For sure was a great fishing day on Simcoe.
