Leap of faith to the fabled Lady

Fellas,

Its been a long while since I have posted anything. Being back in southern Ont has really put a damper on my abilty to get into quality fishing...but like everyone else this weather has got the itchy's goin to the point where I might get a rash soon! I am heading to mighty Simcoe in search of some decent weight on the end of the rod for Friday morning. Having never truely fished Simcoe for lakers I am going to go with obvious and head to Kemp (also most direct for me) From all reports I have read it would appear that I am pretty safe to trek out anywhere from the south side...my only concern is that being a tourist to this mighty and formidable body of water I do not want to impose on those that sleep and eat beside her magnifigance on a daily basis... so can someone PLEASE clarify the parking rules and what not on this side. I have several locations picked that look to me to be legal access (public areas,points, right of ways, traditional access points ect)...I am not concerned about parking a ways away and walking, thats part of the game. Just dont want to impose...

Its been a long time since I have got to watch the video game and jig a tube...I will post the pics on Friday eve when I get back.

 

Cheers and hello to all again..

Here's the access points, pick a spot, and look for parking nearby. There should be some, but not a lot of it, if you want to park close to the water. Follow signs!

Is Kempenfelt and the main section safe yet? I was on Couchiching around the same time some of the other guys were posting reports and had 5-8" of ice but was told that Kempenfelt was still open, that was a few days ago though, things may have changed, just curious I suppose as I know the perch grounds and cooks bay had people on it

Easyfish,

Thanks for the map. Do you have one with parking rules? Just joking..... those bullets are actually quite helpfull!! Basically I want to know if my truck will still be there when I get back if I just randomly park on a local street. Going to try to stay away from the main access points if possible...if not I guess I will join the crowds.
