Joeytier Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Small lakes in the near north region are mostly safe, and will likely be very solid [5+"] by next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Caster Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 R.C. have you checked / heard about the bay we fished last year on Nosbonsing. Been on it 3 times before Christmas. Haven't checked that spot yet... I might be looking for some perch next weekend so I'll probably check then. Today, still only 3" or less...the ice didnt' really form last night with the snow cover. So close, yet so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinker Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Drove thru Bewdley today. Rice lake was ice as far as I could see. Still some geese waaaaay out in the middle though, so there is still some open water out there. I didn't stop to check thickness, but It certainly didn't look like much. S.

Ryan Landry Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Most of the back lakes north of sudbury should be good. The ones we fished have 4-6" on the bottom layer and 2" on the top with about 4" of slush in between. In a few more days they should lock together for a good 10-12".

NAW Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 I've been trying to post local Ice report the past 2 weeks. But things have been crazy. Little lake Barrie was open in the middle on Monday. Orr lake is skimmed Over but far from safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbuckzone Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Scugog is very patchy. Some areas have been frozen for most of December, but other bays are wide open. By new years I should be perch fishing near shore, I definately wouldn't put the huts out for at least a few weeks though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's maybe 2" in front of my house, I can stand on it but wouldn't go more than 5' from shore for fear of getting wet feet lol, lots of damp spots too. Hopefully I'll be walking out new years day.

jedimaster Posted December 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Hopefully going to go this week somewhere between bancroft and apsley but it may be a last minute type of decision. Was hoping things would have locked up by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishindevil Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 The smaller lakes In Haliburton were froze and had a few inches but they have got about 8-10 inches of snow and is insulating them but guys are out walking and fishing on them !!!! It's cold there today and its helping for sure !!!! But yes guys are out on lakes in the Dorset Haliburton forest area .... Stay off the big lakes lots of slushy spots and open water on them !!!! That's a report from last night by brother -inlaw is a plow driver for Haliburton county ... He knows has been there for 40yrs.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigger Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Promising day up here on 12Mile L. The lake was wide open exept for the bays last night and is pretty much ice all the way across today. If the snow stays off and the temps/wind low, should be some very fishable lakes up here in the newyear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Caster Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 6-8 inches on a splake lake near north bay today. Cold as heck out there too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locnar Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Anyone have any news on the back lakes near Gooderham? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbuckzone Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Was out on Scugog today on 2.5 to 4 inches, drilled about a half dozen holes within 400 ft from shore along starrs beach. didn't catch any perch, probably because I got a late start. Ill give it a shot tomorrow morning so I'll let you guys know how it goes. My friends were apparently into some crappie closer to Port Perry but im not sure how safe the ice is down there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
