Simcoe Smallies

[slightlyhuman]

moved to Barrie not too long ago and been just fishing Little lake and kempenfelt a little bit but no luck. got a buddy coming down with a boat and was curious about some good areas to go for smallies and maybe walleye, I would assume I need to get out of kempenfelt. any tips about fishing on simcoe would be great! (of course, im not asking for anyones favourite spots, just some tips for a new kid in town)

Use the search feature to look up some Simcoe reports, that's the best way to see how people are catching them. Good luck out there!

Can't tell you good places to fish but Welcome to Barrie!

Watch out for the homeless and crazy people downtown, that's about my only advice, lol.

Throw spinner baits,jerk baits and tubes on the north shore of the bay . Thats the best I can give you as a start.From there,you will learn.

Welcome to town, and to the OFC.

 

I don't fish for bass, but Simcoe has some brutes. Some good advice above. You shouldn't waste your time looking for walleye on Simcoe, they're rare on the lake, unless you know exactly when and where to look.
