Eazy Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 Hi to all, going to be headin'to MacGregor bay this week for some vacationing, and am wondering what species I'm in for?? Any advice would be helpful as this is a completely new body of water to me!

mizzmo Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 I stayed on a island cottage for a week when that downburst/tornado hit Manitoulin Island, so a few years ago. We fished mostly bass and caught a few pike. Mostly tube jigs did the trick. Apparently, if you ask around up there there are some trout pen just floating around. I was told you fish near them with shrimp and can do quite well. Good luck!
Headhunter Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 Open water fishing for Bows. Look for deep edge drop offs, troll spoons or crankbaits. Some Bass and pike, but mainly open water trolling for bows. HH
Eazy Posted June 27, 2011 Author Report Posted June 27, 2011 Predominat species for me were smallmouth bass and Pike, prefered bait was the X-Rap in the Ghost color or Olive......fished mostly shallow water structure, weed beds, rock piles etc. Didn't hit up any open water as that place has literally thousands of islands, bays and channels. Also brought the Garmin just so I wouldn't get lost!
