BillM Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 No muskies in Six Mile, it's a tough lake for pike/bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 No muskies in Six Mile, it's a tough lake for pike/bass. It is odd... with just that dam in the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have personally seen a few musky that were caught on Six Mile so they are there.When I use to camp there back in the late 80s there was an older dutch gentleman camped beside me that brought one back with him one morning around 15 lbs.Then about 4 years ago I was fishing a shoal close to Pretty Channel when the other boat near me landed a ski around the 12 lb mark.Yes they were both musky not pike.There is also a few hanging in the park office that were caught on Six Mile.

crossover Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 I had a lot of luck on Six mile, but not by the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Six mile has some great bass fishing. Just have to work to get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyk Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 There are pike in six mile, just look for the weeds and some deep water near by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAW Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 I've seen a few musky caught there too, but few and far between. One guy showed me a video of him catching a massive musky there from last season. Very very rare to see a ski on that lake. The fishing is hit or miss there. Troll a mepps spinner around weed beds and shoals. I would be very surprised if you didn't catch a handful of pike.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigugli Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 Simple truth about 6Mile is this. There is plenty of good fishing. On weekends there is an excessive amount of highspeed boat traffic, so the fish is a little tougher. The same for many a larger Muskoka lake. Never used to be that way but that's the way it is now. I run up between Tues. and Fri. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Nice photo, Wayne. I caught my PB wally just on the downstream side of that dam. Way before yesterday, believe I was driving a '57 Pontiac at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Yeah, we got away with a lot of stuff that would be verboten today. I remember getting on a Gray Coach bus with a shotgun in a case to go hunting numerous times and no one gave it a second thought. Try it today. There were no safety checks for cars or breathalizers for people or cars then. My first car cost me $25.00. No one cared if you had paper for boats and there was no such thing as a fishing license. Remember the year they sold fishing licenses and then gave everyone their money back because administration costs were too high? I never claimed my money back and still have the license.

anglin jake Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 I went on a camping trip to six mile lake park and did some fishing while I was there. I was there mid July. There wasn't a lot of info on fishing the lake on the internet so I thought I would add my 2 cents to the internet world, especially since I will not be going back any time soon. The fishing wasn't bad but wasn't great. During the day, I had the most success fishing for bass around islands casting spinners and mid divers like a hot n' tot. Mainly stuck with black and green. Midday fishing was tough. We had the most luck in the same spot, same time, everyday. I don't remember exactly the time (don't usually have a watch when camping) but maybe around 630 - 7.

I don't appreciate people breaking the OFC rules and posting specific "hot" spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lake itself is hardly a secret with that big Provincial Park right there and all... I can imagine the hords converging on the lake as we speak.

BillM Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I wasn't very specific, the guy mentioned a single spot in a giant lake, lol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAW Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Whether the lake is big or small, it' still breaking the OFC rules. It was specific details, about a specific spot on the lake. I actually fish this exact location several times a year. A mod went in and removed the specific details on the location, which I appreciate very much.

anglin jake Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Read the rules man..! And maybe the "Intro" post as well.. I apologize for breaking the rules. When going to a new lake, I can usually find some information/tips on the internet. Six Mile was extremely tough to find anything on. I thought I would help out people in the same position as me who just want to catch fish. I didn't think anything of it at the time but can see how people would be upset. I am also not certain if it was the spot or if they just start biting in the evening and I just happened to be in the same spot, same time everyday since I was on my way back to the park.
