Mississippi Lake Ontario

[Matt Janes]

Hi Everyone,

 

I am looking for a lake to take the wife and young lad fishing for the day this upcoming weekend. We live in Ottawa and usually fish the Rideau and Ottawa rivers. I am looking for a lake within about a 1 hour drive from Ottawa and there aren't too many. I have contimplated going to Mississippi Lake a few times in the past but have never gone. Anyone ever been to Mississippi Lake and if so how is the fishing, for bass, pike or walleye specifically? Also any place to take the young lad for a swim? Free or paid boat launch? Any info would be much appreciated!

Lots of fish in the Mississippi lake. You can launch from the town ramp. Fish the weedy bays and you will load up on pike. like any lake around Ottawa lots of boat traffic. Also their are tons of lakes,within an hour . You could also launch and fish the big redeau from redeau ferry
