ABsucksmissON Posted April 18 Report Share Posted April 18 Looking at a cottage on Maclean Lake and wondering if the fishing is any good. I grew up on the Gloucester Poole and know what to expect there but never went into maclean lake. Everything I do find fo rinfo doesn't look to good. Wife likes the cottage and it checks a lot of the boxes but if there is no fish then we got a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted April 18 Report Share Posted April 18 IMO Gloucester pool is 3 times better fishing then Maclean but it’s only a short boat ride between them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABsucksmissON Posted April 18 Author Report Share Posted April 18 I agree nothing comes close to Gloucester and yes it’s a short boat ride (by the way how big of boat can you get under the bridge?). So that’s my argument to the wife that fishing for the kids and risk of algae bloom is better /less expensive in Gloucester but she likes the Maclean place better (fashion of function with these ladies lol). So will kids still have decent fun in Maclean off the dock vs what they have in go home bay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 I can’t remember, I have always gone through in a small boat so never thought about it and haven’t been there in about 6 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABsucksmissON Posted April 19 Author Report Share Posted April 19 No worries thanks for the heads up though. Since you k ow Gloucester pole do you know here the sunken island is? I last fished at is when I was 19 (24 years ago) and couldn’t find it to save my life last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 Are you talking about the one that tops off at about 5 ft depending on the time of year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 How big of a boat are we talking about? There's no fishing boat out there that couldn't get under the bridge and zigzag around the tree stumps. I've done well for largies and crappie in Maclean but I rarely ever fish it as GPool is right there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
