chohenwald Posted November 30, 2015 Report Posted November 30, 2015 Hi guys. I recently purchased a cottage on Haliburton Lake and was wondering if anyone here has ice fished this lake before? Any tips or locations worth checking out? I can't wait to get out there! Thanks in advance. Chris.
jimmer Posted November 30, 2015 Report Posted November 30, 2015 There are huge lakers in there. That's all I know. Some good ling fishing also from the rumours I hear. Fish off some points that drop into deep water, any rock structure that you know of, they could also be shallow in the winter.
GBW Posted November 30, 2015 Report Posted November 30, 2015 I grew up on that lake but never fished in in the winter way back then. Haven't been there in years either... We were on Delaney Dr (now shortened and called Delaney Rd). It was named after my grandfather for bringing 'hydro' to the area. Good luck Chris and yes there are some BIG lakers in there!
chohenwald Posted December 1, 2015 Author Report Posted December 1, 2015 Thanks guys. Can't wait till it freezes over. Bought myself an auger and a hut today! GBW-I'm actually very close to Delaney. At the end of curry road.
Sinker Posted December 1, 2015 Report Posted December 1, 2015 I havent fished there in a few years but there are also whities in there. Beautiful lake! S.
ckewley Posted December 1, 2015 Report Posted December 1, 2015 I've fished the opposite end from you, a friend has a cottage on Dignan rd. not at all familiar with the lake but did notice the huts seemed to follow a trench. Folks on the outside of the trench did poorly (us) ones on the drop off did ok. A couple of lakers & whities were caught, nothing huge but we hit the lake the night after a huge drop in temp, went from -5 (high) to -35 (never mind the wind chill) planning on a return trip this year.
GBW Posted December 1, 2015 Report Posted December 1, 2015 (edited) Thanks guys. Can't wait till it freezes over. Bought myself an auger and a hut today! GBW-I'm actually very close to Delaney. At the end of curry road.Curry was Delany from the main road all the way to the current Delaney. We were in the bay about 5 driveways in from "hali" lake rd. The driveway was a big U and had a main cottage, enclosed breezeway and attached smaller cabin. I wonder if the shoes are still nailed to the tree at the top of the hill on the one side of the driveway... HA *edit to add* blue maker on the road is 1944 for the old place...
