[lakemaster]

Hi I want to try splake fishing in Bancroft but, I dont know where to begun. does anyone know what lake has splake in bancroft area so I can try this weekend thanks

Will you be there during a weekday? If so, drop by the MNR office and get a stocking list. Splake are a put and take fishery; of the lake isn't stocked then it doesn't have splake.

If you look hard enough you can also fine the odd stocking lists online.

Like stated earlier the stocking map from the MNR on Hwy. 28 will help you the most.

Good luck. This is a great time of year for splake.

I found this online tool to be helpful in locating all those stocked lakes in Google Maps using the Easting and Northing coordinates they provide.

 

Good luck!

thanks bro i wish i catch one

Just wondering what does people use to catch splake?? and do they go in the deep water or you can fish them in the shoreline thanks

[singingdog]

At these water temps, I would fish them like brookies: cast to shoreline cover that has easy access to deep water. Steep dropoffs with large rocks are another spot to check out. If you have a FFinder, look for anyplace that has a slight rise in temps. With the sun in the forecast, the sun will heat up areas with dark bottom, logs, shallow rocks. I rarely fish deep for them this time of year, but I also get skunked occasionally.
