NAW Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 I usually drive all the way down the Inisfill to chase white fish. But I'd really like to try some on the north end. That would cut my drive in half. Anyone have any luck on the north end for White fish in the past? Or could possibly give me a starting point?.. I was thinking hawkstone area, if I can find an access point. I may head out after lunch to look for access and check ice. If anyone cares to join...

BillM Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 Nice Brian, what kind of ice thickness is out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 We were on 4 black with 3 white. Just enough snow fell to bank up the hub to keep it toasty warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunkerhunter Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 I landed 4 but be careful out there still. I found a lot of ice with only 2 inches out in the middle of kemp bay. A few spots the spud went through in one shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAW Posted January 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) Hopefully not, if there's still spots with 2"! That being said... My buddy from Alcona said he saw a quad out past snake island earlier this week. Edited January 2, 2014 by N.A.W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey buoy Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) I think it varies Nick,heard from a fellow out in Kempenfelt and found many 2" spots.I'm sure with the last couple cold days and tomorrow,there should be no worries.This was just the day before new years.

kickingfrog Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 I might take my son out Friday. He's off school and has been asking to go. I'll likely stick to the perch areas to keep him happy. I tell myself there's always a chance for a pike to keep me happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunkerhunter Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Yes quads and yes sleds but it is very sketchy. Where there was more snow the ice did not build the same. I would not recommend taking the quad just yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAW Posted January 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 thanks, hopefully more ice will get built for the weekend. Taking sled anyway. I've heard from a few people now that there's spots with 2". Both current reports from the past few days. I'll be spudding my way out tomorrow. Have you been out on Simcoe yet this year?

NAW Posted January 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Just got in from a cold day on the ice. Ice is decent. 3.5" of black. In some places it has 6" of frozen slush on top.. In others I has 4" of slush/water with a thin crust of frozen slush. Marked a few. Would have got skunked if not for a herring... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAW Posted January 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Just a little north of where you mentioned. Marked some lakers. No schools of whitefish though. Is there Perch along the shore there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
