F7Firecat Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Im looking to take my son on a trip to Lake of Bays area (dorset) for some ice fishing as we have a nice place to stay. I havent fishin LOB for some Lakers or Whitefish at all so I am looking for some information on a hut operator to hook us up with a hut and some good advice for 3 or 4 days. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adempsey Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) This is the information I recorded on my map for Lake of Bays: Hut to Hut (705) 489-2679 Lake of Bays Ice Fishing Co (705) 788-0330 (705) 789-1642 Logging Chain Lodge has huts too. http://www.loggingchainlodge.on.ca/specials.htm I have never used any of these services or even contacted them. I don't even know if they're still in business etc. Cheers! edit: Looks like Hut to Hut is out of Minden, so not sure why I recorded that for Lake of Bays. Maybe they have huts in a few places or are a guide service. Edited January 30, 2012 by FishLogic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyb Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Give Tom Waldock a call....he's out of Huntsville and seems to be making a name for himself. I haven't fished with him yet, but know a couple people that have and they only have good things to say about him. Have been chatting back and forth with him for a bit, online, and he would be my go-to guy up there. Click here to check out his web page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

registerfly Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Has anyone any idea if the ice is sufficiently thick. I called into the bait shop in Bayside and they are not even sure, at least only on a day to day basis. Was looking to try and hit Dwight Bay this weekend maybe Saturday. Any members been up?

JTorra Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) Ice in bays is fine. Main channel, mouth of Oxtounge and Dorset ice is dicey. Edited February 3, 2012 by JTorra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adempsey Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Just got back from a weekender up at Lake of Bays. We went out of Dwight and South Portage Road into Whitehouse Bay. We didn't walk too far out from Dwight, just past the few huts there into 50-60 FOW. Ice was 8" good clear ice and 3" of frozen slush on top. We walked about 1 km or so into Whitehouse Bay near Seagull Island (or Pancake Island? depends on the map you use) and the ice was 4" of good clear ice with 1" of frozen slush ice. There were about 20 huts in Whitehouse Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
