Lake Wilcox Fishing Report Update

[GrenadierPond-HighPark]

Hi All,

I started fishing Lake Wilcox recently and the fishing is ok. The only problem with the lake is the lack of shore fishing spots. There's lots of kids swimming in the beach area and lots of novice anglers who tend to get their lines tangled or snagged.

Nice, be careful on that dock, it's private and the owners aren't very accepting of fishermen.

years ago I was told fishing from the canoe club was prohibited

I was fishing from the public dock. There's a boat house that has two docks that says no fishing on it. So it's fine to fish where I am.

there's actually a by-law banning fishing from that area (the sign is beside the dock). You're only permitted to fish from the south shore.

 

Nice fish though!
