intro & Quick Question

[rowingsunny]

Hi my name is Sunny and I am fairly new to this fishing board. I do quite a bit of fishing on beford lake, colpoys bay, cooks bay and spots around the niagara region fishing mostly for bass, pickerel, pike, perch and some trout. I have a cottage in the wiarton area and I have never iced fished up there. Curious as to if any one has ice fished on colpoys bay or know of any other good ice fishing spots close by. I look forward to any feedback. Thanks

I have a friend that has a cottage in Wiarton as well and their is quite a bit of ice fishing for white fish in the bay. Also the small inland lakes in the area don't see a lot of pressure in the winter but can be a lot of fun. Isaac lake, boat lake, sky lake and Chesley lake just to name a few. Chesley does see more ice fisherman then the others do.

....Welcome to the board. As someone who enjoys ice fishing on Colpoys I'll give you this advice, take a boat.

LOL, that's funny the gentleman who runs the bait shack up there gave the same advice when I called him to ask him how the ice was. Have you had much success ice fishing on colpoys?? I have caught some pretty nice rainbows in the summer there.

....I've actually spent more time ice fishing Owen Sound just because it's closer but yes I've had success on Colpoys for whities.

Whities and Nice Bows late in the season if the ice holds!!!
