Hey everyone,
Newbie here.
Started fishing 2 months ago.
Got a 11ft dinghy and a 1982 johnson 9.9 ( all tuned and cleaned up, oh my god this is so much fun ) recently and started going around local smaller lakes ( Belwood, Conestogo, etc ).
Was hoping to try Erie or Huron few times this year.
I inflate/deflate dinghy every time, so looking for recommendations on decent or even free spots to possibly inflate, launch the boat and up to what wind would you recommend to go out on this setup?
Also, could anyone recommend good spots to try out on both lakes? ( Driving from Waterloo, don't mind 2h drives )
P.S Until when it would be reasonable to fish on boat and then give it a pause until ice comes out, November-December? Or would you rather be done with a boat around October and switch to waders/shore-fishing until ice? Don't mind the cold, need to get out sometimes!
