Christopheraaron Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 I'm trying to find somewhere (preferably central ontario, between muskoka and algonquin) to camp for 4 days, I'd like it to have most of the classic elements of a bass lake (to gain experience) it would also have to be canoe-friendly. The things I'd really like are pencil reeds, lots of pads and cabbage. Thanks for any suggestions! (if possible it would also be nice to have a secluded camp ground, so no trailers and packed together sites.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Why not go to Six Mile lake? Canoe friendly .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopheraaron Posted July 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 I always avoided it because it seemed as though it was a loud and busy park... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Unfortunately I don't think you'll have many choices.. Early morning/late evenings are the best anyhow, not to much traffic out on the lake then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(if possible it would also be nice to have a secluded camp ground, so no trailers and packed together sites.) You don't ask for much do you! LOL The specifics you ask for doesn't really fit that area from my experience. However, there are many lakes and campsites around the Dorset/Dwight area that have bass in the lakes. They aren't your classic bass lakes, but try tubes, drop shotting and wacky rigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya I know it was a long shot, just really want to get some bass practice, i would use a less pristine site but when the other campers don't fish you have to have something for them.

Once you launch yer canoe in the early morning,you will be on the lake all day.So whats the prob? You can take the whole day,(12 hours)to do the shore line. You would be surprised,how long you can spend on just one spot on that lake. First lake I was ever taken for a canoe fish when I was 12.Then again,the times have changed. To bad.
