landry Posted December 25, 2012 Report Posted December 25, 2012 Was wondering if anyone has fished this lake for lakers or ice fished it. I am heading there this winter for some ice fishing. Thanks Landry
Terry Posted December 25, 2012 Report Posted December 25, 2012 is this the lake <a href="http://s25.beta.photobucket.com/user/Mrbeee1954/media/12-25-201210-08-06AM_zps3ef79f4d.png.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/12-25-201210-08-06AM_zps3ef79f4d.png" border="0" alt="Photobucket"/></a> <a href="http://s25.beta.photobucket.com/user/Mrbeee1954/media/12-25-201210-13-19AM_zps1dc39966.png.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/12-25-201210-13-19AM_zps1dc39966.png" border="0" alt="Photobucket"/></a>
bigbuckzone Posted December 25, 2012 Report Posted December 25, 2012 I've fished that lake quite a bit in the last couple years. Theres plenty of trout in there, but don't expect anything bigger than 3 pounds. I hug the shore along the south side of the lake in 50' to 65' of water. If you wana catch a big one try fishing on Salmon lake
Joeytier Posted December 25, 2012 Report Posted December 25, 2012 It's small and wall to wall with cottages, but it gets stocked every year so obviously there will be some little guys around at least
fishindevil Posted December 26, 2012 Report Posted December 26, 2012 That lake has a slot as well and only one line through the ice as well !!! Please read the regs before you go !!!
bigbuckzone Posted December 26, 2012 Report Posted December 26, 2012 Yes I should have mentioned that, it only applies to Salmon lake though, Fortescue is fair game for trout, open all year with no slot or line restriction. I usually fish Fortescue in the morning just as a "warm up", then head over to Salmon for the bigguns. Fortescue may be worth it this year if the little dinks from 2 years ago managed to survive. I havent had a look at the charts but I think they stock about 1000 yearly
landry Posted December 26, 2012 Author Report Posted December 26, 2012 Thanks for the great feedback and tips guys. I am going in march. Will be a great time. Landry]
Squid Posted December 26, 2012 Report Posted December 26, 2012 Does anyone know of a boat launch on Fortescue?
ecmilley Posted December 27, 2012 Report Posted December 27, 2012 Does anyone know of a boat launch on Fortescue? off a white lake road, not much of one but that's the access
stendec Posted December 27, 2012 Report Posted December 27, 2012 (edited) is this the lake <a href="http://s25.beta.photobucket.com/user/Mrbeee1954/media/12-25-201210-08-06AM_zps3ef79f4d.png.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/12-25-201210-08-06AM_zps3ef79f4d.png" border="0" alt="Photobucket"/></a> <a href="http://s25.beta.photobucket.com/user/Mrbeee1954/media/12-25-201210-13-19AM_zps1dc39966.png.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/12-25-201210-13-19AM_zps1dc39966.png" border="0" alt="Photobucket"/></a> Terry, What app for google maps is that?

Christopheraaron Posted December 27, 2012 Report Posted December 27, 2012 Terry, What app for google maps is that? I have never seen anything like it. Fish ON Line
Terry Posted December 27, 2012 Report Posted December 27, 2012 good website to check out lakes http://www.web2.mnr.gov.on.ca/fish_online/fishing/fishingExplorer_en.html
stendec Posted December 27, 2012 Report Posted December 27, 2012 Thanks guys, that helps a lot! cheers!
singingdog Posted December 28, 2012 Report Posted December 28, 2012 good website to check out lakes http://www.web2.mnr.gov.on.ca/fish_online/fishing/fishingExplorer_en.html As long as you don't care much about accuracy The info about species is rarely correct for the lakes that I fish.
fishindevil Posted December 28, 2012 Report Posted December 28, 2012 Yes that's true one of my lakes I fish in Haliburton for bass says there is no pike and well we catch several every year.... So it's def not 100% that's for sure ... I thinks it's just a general info that's all for more info its always best to call local boat shops or the local guys usually know best
