a little help at pigeon

[Lunatic]

I havent been here since mid summer,been working long hours 6 days a week. ive also had to cancel 3 fishing trips in a row due to last minute boat issues,so ive only been out 2 times this year and one of those saw my motor die on the trip.

so heres my last attempt this year and ill be going with my dad who im trying to get back into fishing,ive fished pigeon 2 times both while camping at emily pp the 2nd time my friend landed a nice muskie. where are the boat launches on the south end? also if anyone has any advice tips or help they would like to share here or inbox would be great. really hoping for a good day out to get the old man back into it. last 2 times ive fished with him were terrible for boating any fish.

hoping for a fecent day next sat. thx

well there is a launch on the opposite side of the bridge across from Emily pp. Go over the bridge make an immediate left , not sure what condition the launch is in but i've seen people using it all the time. If not there is a few launches around but that is the one is suggested seeming you mentioned Emily pp.

I personally would launch at Nogies Creek in the north end and fish up there rather than the river or south end. The water is very clear in the lower end which can make for some tough fishing. At least you have some depth up the north end.

When fishing Pigeon I often use Gannons Narrows Marina to launch the boat.

 

It's just east of the actual lake on the south shore of Gannons Narrows.

 

It's getting a bit rough but still usable and they've also got gas & washrooms if needed.
