Fishing out of Collingwood area

[fisher]

I am up here for a week and this is day two and still haven't even marked a fish on my sonar, let alone catch one. What happened to this lake, what am I doing wrong or am I spoiled to normally fish out of Lake Ontario.

 

I fished for about 5 hours so far and not even a sighting. Anyone have any suggestions they care to share. I am on the lake right now and can only see two other boats fishing. Maybe this is a futile cause?

 

Been trolling between 2.2- 2.7 mph. Using both spoons and body baits on very long leads. May try a flie soon. Problem is only one rod per person (unlike Lake Ontario). And this on a body of water that you definitely need more lines in the water!

 

Got my son and his cousin joining me tomorrow and wanted to get them into a fish or two. Cousins first time fishing. Otherwise anyone know where I can get them into some perch or other pan fish? Maybe collingwood harbour area?

 

Thanks!

Grab a small fly rod or ultralight and go fish up on the escarpment for some trout.

Yup

Troll around with AC shiners or small body baits (flat line) . You can also perch fish out from the old silos. There are pike in there as well.

 

Good luck
