skdds Posted October 12, 2014 Report Posted October 12, 2014 Hi Guys, Hoping to get the Yak out Monday for a quick day trip...can't go too far from T.O. so was thinking Scugog or Rice lake for whatever has been biting. I have not fished this late in the season before either. Anyone been out there recently? Any suggestions? Happy Thanksgiving! Thanks, Skdds
Paudash Posted October 12, 2014 Report Posted October 12, 2014 I gave up and put the boat away yesterday
Parnelly Posted October 12, 2014 Report Posted October 12, 2014 Was out on Rice yesterday. Spoke to an older gent from Toronto, at the launch. He said it was slow for him yesterday and they only landed 2 pickeral. We spent the afternoon in the chop, and only boated 1. Dress warm.
skdds Posted October 12, 2014 Author Report Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) This does not sound good...how are water temps? Do these lake turn-over or are they too shallow? ..Maybe I should head to Barrie for some perch? Edited October 12, 2014 by skdds
Steve Posted October 12, 2014 Report Posted October 12, 2014 i've heard rice is fishing very tough right now. our last trip to seymour was very unproductive. I was out on Hamilton Harbour yesterday and didn't see much action from myself or any of the other boats....including a few bass boats who were as puzzled as I was.

Do these lake turn-over or are they too shallow? ..Maybe I should head to Barrie for some perch? 12 degrees on the surface. Yes Rice does turnover and I believe that has already happened. A friend of the girlfriends, said he was out on Rice earlier this past week and boated 15 one evening. I also heard they were on fire up at Stoney Lake. Havent been to Stoney myself though.

Weeds Posted October 12, 2014 Report Posted October 12, 2014 Fished little lake here in Peterborough yesterday with a buddy for about 4 hours. One solid bite, musky perhaps, nothing else at all. Spoke to another group of fishermen who'd been out all day and had 2 smallmouth and a handful of perch between them. Lake was looking pretty lifeless.
skdds Posted October 12, 2014 Author Report Posted October 12, 2014 Thanks for the info, may look to barrie instead for the perch bite..
misfish Posted October 12, 2014 Report Posted October 12, 2014 Thanks for the info, may look to barrie instead for the perch bite.. Thats a tough one as well. It has slowed down big time with the huge amount of shinner feed that has moved in. 5 hours to keep 7 keepers.
Steve Posted October 12, 2014 Report Posted October 12, 2014 friends are stilling hitting perch in good numbers on lake erie.... however ... with a Yak....you might be waiting until next year before you get a day to get out.....
skdds Posted October 13, 2014 Author Report Posted October 13, 2014 Guess I'll be going to the supermarket for my fish dinner...
