mike rousseau Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 (edited) Good day So my cousin is getting married and lives in Dacre Ontario just west of Renfrew.... This is around 3 hours from home so to help justify the trip I was thinking about taking my boat and making it a 2-3 day trip and get some fishing in... It's the last weekend of July... So I was wondering if anyone could recommend a lake or river close by where we might get into some decent fishing... I love walleye but bass, pike and maybe even trolling lakers would be fun too... If push comes to shove I can hit the Ottawa river as well... Like everyone says I'm not looking for secret spots... Lol... And PMs are welcome for privacy... I'd prefer to stay within an hour of Dacre Thanks everyone Edited April 21, 2015 by Mike Rousseau Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KraTToR Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 I'd say try the Ottawa river. Launch at Arnprior and you'll have lots of river in both directions. There's a good musky fishery in that area, concentract at the mouths of the feeder rivers. I haven't fished for bass or walleye in this area but I'm sure they are there .

wallyboss Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Muskrat Lake In Cobden has multiple species, lakers, bass,walleyes, pike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonl Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Constance lake right in Dacre has an awesome bass population with a chance of catching the odd walleye. There is a decent boat ramp at the campground but you can also put a good sized boat in off the road in Balacava. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moosebunk Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 What Wallyboss said with Muskrat, or quite close to Dacre with places to stay as well is Lake Clear. A 40+ inch pike was caught there this season through the ice, and it's historically had big fish. There's also plenty walleyes and BIG smallies, and some lakers may still be kicking around.
