Second day here. Scanned the whole west arm, cannot catch a single fish here. Tried jiggs, cranks, spinning etc everything that I had. Does not work at all. Called the lodge cannot get hold of guides ((

Can you guys post here some images of lures/bites you are using. I google what you all write but google results are so different and diverse I cannot figure out what exactly I need to buy.

No they are not on that cold-tolerant. Is there a website where I can get water temperature in Warren Bay/West Arm or so?

As I said because we are very close to where Lakair was (Look at the red cross on the map) we will most likely fish not in the main lake but in Warren Bay. BTW is water good enough for kids for swimming for our kids or it will be too cold at this time of the year (it's a big lake it might be cold overall)?

The closest to our cottage is Lakair Lodge. Do they have guides there? Here is where we staying http://postimg.org/image/rqc7ty4nt/

Thanks guys !

Ok guys good to know about the rocks. And thanks for the tip about the jigs

lew and Andy thanks for the suggestions. We have a fully equipped fishing boat (including marine GPS). And we will be at least 2 (most likely 3 people on the boat) so should not have any surprises here concerning hands are full can't pay attention on where the boat is heading to. But still guys can somebody tell me which lures are generally good for walleye/pike/bass ?

Heading West Arm/Nipissing this weekend Will be staying at friends private cottage around Lakair Lodge area. I know there is Walleye and Pike/Muskie in the area as well as some bass. I am newbie, please suggest what lures/bites (if any) to use and where exactly to fish for Walleye? Not a big fun of muskie, but might fish for pike as well. It's just not sure what type of lures, tackle are used for Bass, Walleye and Pickerel, what are the best times to fish for them etc. I always used worms and it seems to me worms attract lot of sunfish/panfish which I hate and other bigger fish never get onto my hook. So please can somebody answer my questions and preferably with some pictures of suggested lures, hooks, etc 1. What kind of bites/lures, etc are best for walleye, pike and bass (one two per each would be good enough)? Please give me some picture examples if possible. 2. From my experience walleye is fished at night and bass generally in the morning. Correct me if I am wrong and give me couple of more suggestions if possible. 3. If we need to fish at night other than a solid flashlight any special equipment required for that? We will be at night on the open lake so maybe some other stuff required/useful in these conditions And in general whatever else you find you can suggest that I might find useful Thanks a lot in advance.

did you find anybody willing to get together in Toronto area (GTA) ?

also last time on wilcox i was fishing early in the morning but was not able to catch anything. but i was alone, did not have fish finder and there were lots of swimmers in the lake who distract fish. now i want to try evening. ideally we will leave for wilcox friday evening around 6-7 and will come back home late night 1-2 AM (i don't think it's a good idea to stay on the lake till morning dawn, but we will see how it goes)

ok sure, i am located in vaughan. usually i am interested in fishing north, in about 1-1.5 hours of drive from vaughan. this criteria sets m interest in southern Muskoka lakes. but sometimes i travel east to rice lake, depends. usually i fish for bass (small mouth if i can, if not large mouth), if possible walleye (i did some at Rice lake last weekend), and sure some side sunfish are always welcome if there is nothing else i don't fish rivers, usually i go to small lakes like Wilcox in Richmond Hill, Three Mile, Six Mile, Sparrow in Muskokas with inflatable, so that my battery will troll me around for enough time. i prefer fish using artifical bites, but i am open using worms and minnows too if i stock some. don't know what else you think it might be useful to post ?

who wants to join ? PM me. i got a small inflatable (will fit 2 of us), fish-finder, trolling motor, etc. you bring some worms and we are good to go.
