Your Favourite Lake

[Beans]

Right where I am right now...North shore of Pigeon Lake...Haven't quite figured out all the best spots and I'm running out of time...Be nice if we could icefish for crappie and perch...

[OhioFisherman]

Put me in the boat with Jigger, GB, lots of water, lots of species, lots of different water types and scenery, and some good sized fish.

[jeffw]

I would have to say balsam lake, nice walleye, muskie and pig smallies and largemouth. Lots of crappie now to boot.

Cheers Jeff

[Fang]

I'll probably be the only one to say it but for me Lake Temagami

 

For those of you who want a "stay tuned" report I'm hoping Big Sand Lake in Manitoba is all it is supposed to be. Watch for Summer report

[mistyjr1]

Upper Lake X is really good for bass and pike.

 

But Lower Lake Y is really good for everything else.

[fishindevil]

Well thats an easy one to answer the one & only....THE MIGHTY OTTAWA RIVER.....

[trapshooter]

Lac Seul. No Question. Trophy bass, muskie, walleye, pike, whitefish. Enough water to keep you busy your entire life and best of all... it's remote and relatively low pressure.

[ccmtcanada]

With the exception of a few trips to the Kawarthas, I fish primarily Lake Ontario and it's Tributaries, so I'd have to say that that is my fav lake at this point. My view may change now that I have a boat though and plan as many trips to different lakes as possible next season.

I have been fortunate to fish Nipissing all my life and look forward to doing it for a few more years to come. Lots of types of fish and ways to catch them.

[Sandbag]

Lake St. Clair

 

Great variety of species in softwater and a pretty decent hardwater season as well

 

Cheers

WITHOUT A DOUBT Lake of the woods

 

NO WAIT........ Rainy lake ya for sure Rainy or maybe Lac seul or Pipestone or Little Turtle

no maybe Bad Vermillion

 

mmmmmmmm I'm gonna have to get back to you on this one

 

[bigbuck]

Having fished the Muskokas, the Kawartha's and shore fished Lake O, nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing compares to Lake of The Woods. You could quite literally fish every day for the rest of your life there and still not cover all of the little bays, around all the islands, the open water etc... Awesome fishing for walleye, pike, smallmouth bass, lake trout, perch, crappie, whitefish, and did I mention MUSKIE (please remember that all of the aforementioned fish are just bait for the mighty muskie that reside there). It is gorgeous and there are sheltered bays you can fish without even hearing another boat or seeing another person.

Lake X.

 

Yep, me, too!

[bassmaster4]

for me it would either have to be the Grand River or Minisinakwa Lake near timmins

[TAH]

At this point I would say 3, Lakair, French River Lodge and the Moon River GB Great fishing and scenery

[highdrifter]

Lake of the Woods.. Whitefish Bay. White pelicans, endless shorelines, and the best walleye and smallmouth fishing I've ever experienced! My happy place. yyeeeee

[mistaredone]

Lake of the woods and I have never been there.

[carcham333]

i'd go for the Ottawa river.......

[Moosebunk]

Any lake that offers the variety of at least 3 species, with at least one of the species being of trophy size, one of the species coming in phenomenal numbers, and for me at least one has to be a trout specie. If it did not have those qualities I'd expect great fishing of at least 4 species of fish.

 

For Ontario...

 

Nipigon. A solid four species lake where good numbers of all species can potentially be caught and all of them in trophy sizes.

 

LOTW offers the same but substitutes the brookies for musky... an almost fair trade.

 

The Albany or Attawapiskat Rivers. Walleye, brook trout, trophy pike, sturgeon and whitefish.

 

Hawley/Sutton Lake/River. A most underfished gem full of lakers, searun and resident brookies, and totally overlooked big pike and abundant walleye.

 

Lake Superior or Ontario. Tonnes of crap.

 

 

Across Canada...

 

I think any trophy northern lake with lake trout, pike and grayling would be perfect. First choice Great Bear so I could throw in the Tree River and fish the worlds largest arctic char after I get bored of the best lake trout fishing there likely is.

 

God's Lake/River too in Manitoba. Pike, walleye, lakers and brookies. Like Nipigon, my dream combination right there.

 

 

To pick only one,

 

Nipigon.

[Canuck2fan]

I can't pick my favorite spot on account of the Asian Carp probably ruining where I would choose as my only spot before I die..... Damn that makes me sad. So I guess I would have pick my second choice a little bit of bass heaven not far from here. I would be more specific but I would be tripping over too many people from the board there on June 28, 2008 when I get done work.

[Hookset]

Lake of the woods and I have never been there.

 

 

Ditto,

 

From what I've heard + read + watched on T.V. it's got all I'd ever need. As was said previous, it's big enough that you can fish it for

a life time and never hit it all.

 

Creeping farther North to live, farther away from "civilization" would be cool too.

Fotress Lake in Hamber Provincial Park/BC. It can be googled. Flyin or backpack with brookies being the target species.

[wallyboss]

Takwata Lake but a bit on the wild side. Second choice Lac Seul.

[Crazyhook]

FLorida keys for me!

[JerseyDog]

The one place in Ontario with basically every native species, clean, wide open water, tricky back bays, small and large tribs with terrain from swampy, rocky, weedy, grassy, sandy to all of the above. And not small, but HUGE - with millions and millions of acres of fishable terrain.

 

"320 kilometres long by 80 kilometres wide. It covers over 15,000 square kilometres, making it almost as large as Lake Ontario."

 

You guessed it, for me there is no contest - I vote Georgian Bay!
