solopaddler Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Was thinking about it, but we're most likely going to hit Erie instead now. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Where were you fishing, I was down by the trail around the narrows and heard someone say that they caught a tagged one, not looking for tips just wondering if that was you? Also do you have a picture of that perch just curious to see what the tag looks like so that I don't miss it.

Had to fish from the swing bridge.It was freakin cold with that north wind. Caught lots of small ones and no tagged perch. Have some entries in for that nice new Lund!!!

Christopheraaron Posted April 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 I was out again and saw last years grand prize boat drive by while they made fun of us, had minnows today and hooked into about 60 perch, got a nice 12 incher, no tags, will be out again next week with the canoe, hopefully the wind will be less brutal and the water a little warmer.

LefroyFisherman Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 oh I saw you hanging around the railroad bridge. I'm in the Sylvan with the Pike stickers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopheraaron Posted April 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 (edited) oh I saw you hanging around the railroad bridge. I'm in the Sylvan with the Pike stickers. If you mean the white canoe that roped off at the bridge that wasn't me, were you the three tied off on the simcoe side of the railroad? I was on shore where the bridge used to connect, (the kid in the brown jacket and long hair). This weekend I'l be cruising around in a new yellow swift.

The perch are everywhere! The narrows are generally calmer than the lake I've noticed, and it's also surrounded by marinas, on atherley st there is a public launch, just look for the cars. Secret bait..... Live shiners, shh don't let anyone know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Farmer Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 (edited) I just got back from there ,4 days, 8 guys, no tags. We caught tons of Perch and all put back. Our other Buddy kept a few but all were wormy. I'm heading back in the morning for 3 more days. May see a few of you guys. I'm in a red 16' Princecraft 50 Honda tiller, OFC sticker on the back, say Hi. No fish on the Simcoe side. Most people fishing the boat houses catching lots. When we left, 6 tags have been caught.

Maybe we'll see you, I think we'll be hanging around the railroad for the most part, the boat slips on the orillia side of the narrows have been pretty good, along with the rest of the lake. We'll be in a bright yellow canoe, kid long hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jen Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 (edited) I was there last weekend. Noted one out of all the 20 fish we kept between 6 of us was wormy. My cousin Easton caught the first tagged fish on Saturday Morning, tiny little fish it was at only about 5 inches long. Cold windy morning, we decided to dock and fish in the narrows. Great family weekend with my Dad, Uncle, Cousin and a couple of friends even though it was freezing cold. Edited April 30, 2012 by Jen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
