I usually head up to Cook's Bay every spring awaiting these fish right after ice out.
Who's up for it? haha
I save April for the crappies, then May is piking time!

i'm looking forward to it even more than spring pike!
once i find out that ice is out, i'm there.
i may even go up next week to see if there are any fishable ice-free areas and do some scouting.

i remember going last summer in the dreaded heat fishing for bass and would land some big slabs on bass lures in the middle of the lake.
ohh... to be in a boat again... i need soft water!

I'm not sure, but it looks like private property. Has anyone else been here?

Im not sure if they still allow it but both Marinas on Bathurst St charge you five bucks to fish.
are those places worth paying $5 to fish ?

sometimes, since there is not too much access to the river between bradford bridge and lake simcoe.

its five bucks at any marina at bradford, crappies ussualy bite at night so you might save your $ but look out for dogs.
as for me this year i will use 5ft ultra light ugly stik with 6lb fluorocarbon and this thing under the float
1 3/4" fin s shad on 1/16 oz jig
I went to BPS few days ago and couldn't find those fin s shad. Maybe they all sold out? Sales person said... "it should be here~". Maybe they should reorganize that place as they god too much items all over the place.
Are you saying nobody there to correct $5 at night hours? Not that I am trying to be cheap but want to make sure of their marina policy. Yet they release guard dog to push you into water? I mean bite you? I mean.. (would i need to take my baseball bat with me? JustKidding)
Maybe I should go when you go.
