May 24 Weekend

[hoops12]

Yes..... the May long weekend is a ways away, but I'm eager to start planning a small fishing trip fro my buddies. The past 5 years we have fished either the French River or Lake Nip., and this year we want to try a new location closer to Toronto. Typically we rent a cottage and boat for the weekend and fish all day and all night. Can someone please suggest a new location. We enjoy fishing for perch, pickerel and pike. Thanks for you help.

You'll enjoy the moon and Bill at Moon River Cottages is a great guy!

Careful though - it has taken a prop or two.

You just might run into a few OFC members if you give the Bay of Quinte area a try...

Yup Bay of Quinte is not far from Toronto the Walleye usually bite very well with the odd pike in the 3 to 12 pound range.Nice size perch too.

 

Lots of places to stay.Navigation is a breeze and many very friendly people.

 

I will be staying at Mohawk Bay Campround May 24 weekend.you can rent trailers and boats there.

 

Bayside Cottages is another great location.I stay there during the Quinte tournament.

Thanks again!
