Kahshe Lake

[skdds]

Hi guys,

 

I'm heading up to Kahshe lake (near Gravenhurst) in about two weeks for some R&R (Fishing!). I've read up on most of the posts here about that lake..rocks! etc..but hey that's good for fishing! Has anyone been up there recently? Not asking for your spots but what lures and presentations have been good-bass and toothy fish will be my targets, I'm startn to put my gear together. Thanks!

Our family's cottage is on Kash. It's my home lake and I don't spread a lot of fishing info around on it, however, the rocks are no joke. I know the lake very well and I've still managed to take out the lower on our ski boat once, and dinged a few props on the tinners over the years. Anyone on the lake calls it Krashy lake for a reason. Even the guys who've been working on the lake running barges for construction etc. are known to do in a lower unit once a season. Navionics is much better marked than it used to be, but don't for a second think that's all the obstructions. There are decent populations of pike and bass, so have fun and be careful.

Ok, thanks for the info, that seems to be a strongly cautioned tip around here!

It'll save you some money! Last major wreck I had was 3K plus!

That a lot more than the whole week is gonna cost! I'm working out of a yak but it has a driver below the boat and I've wrecked it before on submerged rock and wood so I'll still need to watch it as well. Won't cost 3G's to fix though but not worth the aggravation either.

I've got a friend with a family cottage on that lake. What I've read about that lake keeps me from taking up my bassboat. I'll go fast and it'll go bang. Guaranteed. Sure looks like a nice spot though.

Your golden with a kayak. Just watch the main channels on the weekends, but we don't have too many dummy drivers on the lake all things considered!

The worst part about the rocks is that they are very hard to see because they're dark. I saw a boat hit a patch I had just worked my way through and it was 6 inches under the water. The guy drove off, so not sure what kind of damage he sustained.

Are the launches there free? I see there are a few of them.

 

Thanks

They charge at the boat launches.
