Sterling Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 The wife and I are thinking of getting away for 3-4 days this October. We've scoured the web and found all sorts of cottages, there are some beauties out there for sure, but a problem is that they're mostly on non-walleye lakes. Personally I'll go for anything, bass, trout etc (though lakers will be closed soon). But the wife REALLY wants to get into some walleye. Any suggestions for cottages on (or near) good walleye water? I'm located in North Bay and will travel up to 3 hrs in any direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjames09 Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 you can air bnb any lake with lots of cottages. www.airbnb.com pick any lake you want, there will be a cottage on it. Kawarthas have lots of walleye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark demmery Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 I've had good luck with these guys in the past. www.windrovers.com they cover quite a few areas. Find something thats available/in your budget, then check on the lake to see what species it has.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister G Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 What's wrong with the Big Nip ? ? ? But anyways..........try here but call ahead, don't know if they are open that late in the year. If they are that would be my first choice. Stay right at the main lodge, they have GREAT accommodations. http://www.airivanhoe.com/drive-in-lodge-cabins.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kawarthas have lots of walleye. Lac Kipawa? Thanks, ended up booking on Kipawa via airbnb! Lake Temiscaming old Mission lodge near Cobalt. I've fished Temiscaming through the ice, great lake! call wishin you were fishin on lake temagami rick and pauline laockhart will take care of you Thanks Malcolm, I've been to Rick's cabins on Diamond, Mosquito and Temagami. If it was an option I'd definitely drop the cash and go to Diamond. But the lodge is booked solid for hunting season as I understand it. I did a charter with Rick just last week! What's wrong with the Big Nip ? ? ? But anyways..........try here but call ahead, don't know if they are open that late in the year. If they are that would be my first choice. Stay right at the main lodge, they have GREAT accommodations. http://www.airivanhoe.com/drive-in-lodge-cabins.php I did suggest to the wife that we stay inside and fish Nip, but she'd like to get away. I can catch 20+ walleye in an afternoon on Nip but I'm on 200+ this summer with no keepers. I'll check out the Ivanhoe cabins.

jimmer Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Check out Mike's Outfitter the next time you book. They are just over the border from Larder Lake. I go there with a group from North Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sterling Posted September 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 What end of Kipawa will you be on? Right here: https://www.google.ca/maps/place/Lake+Kipawa/@47.0388729,-79.2547277,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x4d27e15e48ac6895:0x62a8ede63a069a73!8m2!3d46.850485!4d-78.8475469 West arm of the lake in Baie Sale. I'm doing a ton of research and drafting a plan of attack which I will run by the OFC committee when ready. I imagine the problem at that time will be a potential lake turnover. Even considered booking a guide on day 1 to get a head start. Joey do you know of anyone reliable in the area? Bottom line is that if the wife doesn't catch any eyes, I might as well just stay at the cabin this winter!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister G Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Good Luck and I hope you do well and have fun, however Kipawa can be VERY challenging for walleyes but they will be big ones if you can crack the code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got into about 20-30 per day for 5 guys jigging. The thing I like about the lake is that you fish it the same summer and fall. Jigging in 20-30 feet.

haze190 Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 btw: Horwood is in Timmins. I also heard Mattagami which is close to horwood is as good for walleye as well. If you end up going I'd be happy to tell you what worked for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol get over it...welcome to the board man, as you can see some people choose to get sour over literally anything. Sterling, I'm not at all familiar with that end of the lake but I do know that they've already began their fall drawdown of the lake and it's came down a fair amount from summer levels. They do this prior to the lake trout spawn now so they dont leave their eggs high and dry like they used to. You may want to call whoever you're renting from and make sure their dock is still usable.

adempsey Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 Lac Kipawa is a beautiful lake. Challenging for us when we went, but I'd still go back for another crack. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
