Shloim Posted July 24, 2015 Report Posted July 24, 2015 (edited) So Im hitting Rice again tomorrow and was wondering if anyone else will be out on Rice? I also wouldn't be insulted by some offering up a tip or two. Just sayin.... Thanks Sheldon Edited July 24, 2015 by Shloim
Beans Posted July 24, 2015 Report Posted July 24, 2015 Tossing a tube into the wake of the large boats coming out of the mouth of the Otonobee River used to produce some nice bass for us a few years ago...

Interesting you say that Norm, many years ago I used to fish bass in the Otonabee south of the 115 and would toss white spinnerbaits into the waves made by passing boats as they broke along the shoreline and always did well.
Acountdeleted Posted July 24, 2015 Report Posted July 24, 2015 I never have luck there. Avoid my boat like the plague. The fish sure do.
davew3 Posted July 24, 2015 Report Posted July 24, 2015 Locate the railroad and troll or jig the weed edges. Good luck.
Sinker Posted July 25, 2015 Report Posted July 25, 2015 Well, I was going to offer up some advice, but you didnt reply! How'd you make out? We fished eyes and slayed them!
gaspumper Posted July 25, 2015 Report Posted July 25, 2015 Well, I was going to offer up some advice, but you didnt reply! How'd you make out? We fished eyes and slayed them!We done very good our selfs had our count of eyes (8) by 10:15 plus 7 we had to release that was under and over slot.

gaspumper Posted July 26, 2015 Report Posted July 26, 2015 Sounds like i went two weeks too early!! zippo, nada, zilch lolI don't know where you were fishing we have been catching them from the time the season opened all around the sunken railway line.
Shloim Posted July 26, 2015 Author Report Posted July 26, 2015 Well Ive never had any great luck fishing Rice Lake and that didn't change. Fished from 7:30 am until 1 pm and was only able to put 1 fish in the boat, an unimpressive smallie. My best day there was only a 4 fish day. Sucks that all the good places are at least a 2 hour drive from TO....Although just today a friend was telling me about a land locked lake near his cottage thats in the wild. Its about a 1k hike on a trail and voila! A unfished lake that holds huge bass and monster pike. Apparently people have dragged canoes back there and chained them up...Stay tuned for a fall report on that adventure
Garnet Posted July 26, 2015 Report Posted July 26, 2015 It takes some fishing skills to make Rice happen but it's a great lake and the skills learned will transfer to any lake. Maybe you should hire a guide likely cheaper than travel all over.
