misfish Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 Finally got on the bay this morning. To my surprise,we had 5-6 " of solid black ice. Managed a bunch of herring and a whitie. Lost one near the hole. Fished with a bunch of buddies. My oldest even made it out this morning with us. Terry having a nap Hey fishfarmer, it,s still getting used. Gave it to my son. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bacon Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 I was working in Barrie today. I noticed that the huts all seemed to be on the south side of the bay. Is that because the ice is safer; or, because the fishing is better there? I am hoping to get out on the bay after work a few times. I am working on the north side of the bay.

The fishing is ok. It,s my first ice spot til other areas firm up. It made another 1.5 " over night, -18 at 6am this morning when I was all set up. I was sitting in the same area as yesterday and had 7" this morning. It,s not the same all over. Knowing the bay and it,s habits is a big plus. Another nice thing about this spot is parents can take their kids out . Not a long walk and can catch perch,herring ,smelt and white fish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish Farmer Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Hi Bro, that's great your son has it, hope he has the luck I had with it. Wish now I should have kept it. That Clam Scout I bought is a little small for 3 holes, one for trans, 2 to fish and with heater, it's tight. Seeing you guys have ice, I may have to make the trek up to Simcoe. I don't think we'll get safe ice for the harbor here and Long Point is going to be iffy. Love to do the Whitie thing one day. All I need to see now is seeing you with a couple flopping around your feetwill just get me craving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a permanent hut for years on Simcoe and you wouldn't believe the stuff that happened to my hut, your joke was one of them. Little to say I had to move it, wife was pretty disgusted.

AKRISONER Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 what a beauty weekend it was, not a cloud in the sky and crisp -20 mornings and dead calm -10 sunny afternoons. I swear to god it feels 100 times warmer when its -10 sunny and calm then when its 0 and cloudy. My buddy couldnt help falling asleep either, those sunny afternoons called for a nap. I even got a sunburn, and met a local who directed me the way of a bush trail that I was not aware of that allows me to fish in one of my favourite fishing grounds. Lots of people were concerned about this ice season, i think we are just getting started on a long hardwater season. Time will tell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
