I've gotten a suprise invite to go fishing at Big Gull lake at the end of september and 1st part of october, 27th -3rd. I've never been up that late and was wondering how the weather might be. I assume pretty nice during the day and chilly at night. The lake is about an hour or so north of bellville. thx in advance.

Jump the gun much?

 

Warm days and cold nights are normal, but we're way off to perdict weather 2 months from now. Focus on weather patterns a week or two before you head up. Smallmouths should be en route or already settled into their wintering areas regardless of temperatures. They make their transition from summer areas to wintering holes relative to amount of daylight, not water temperature.

I've missed only one October in the past 16 years. It's a great time to fish NW Ontario. Not the numbers, but size usually is better. New moons and full moons have been good to me. Drawback is that not many fishermen are around to exchange information.

 

Do it. Weather won't matter, just go fishing.

I have a trailer in Madoc,about 45 minutes or so North of Belleville and I find that time of year pretty nice for fishing, and fish on the feed bag...the days are beauty, of course getting shorter, nights and early mornings can be a bit cooler but heck, it's nice after a hot summer on and around the water...less bugs...less people..it's a great time to go if ya ask me :Gonefishing: I know I will be fishing up and around that way...it's alos this time of year and into mid to later October that I have caught a couple of the biggest muskies I have ever caught :)
