Ice fishing help

[youngvedder]

First time heading out around Barrie for some ice fishing and wanted to get ideas on places to go for some perch?

 

Assuming Simcoe, just not sure what area to head out from. Thx!!

you can go off Gilford road or highway 89. walk out to the group and enjoy

Go to Highway 89, drive until you can drive no further. Look for the large group of yellow huts, walk towards them until you tire out (I find 200 meters away is a great spot) put a minnow head on..... anything I bet you could catch perch on a safty pin and a ball of yarn.

 

Have fun.

Right out from shore in Barrie. There are a few parking lots with lots of spots (sorry 'bout that) and no fees.

had my first fish on within 5 mins of dropping the line!
