What is the fishing around Midland and Penetang like?

My favourite fish to fish for is largemouth bass which I primarily fish for in the Kawarthas. Are there largemouth bass in the Midland / Penetang area?
The other area we are considering is Lindsay which is closer to the traditional lakes I have fished, but is a little further away from family.
Thank you for any tips or suggestions you offer.

Pike are okay but I have caught so many of them here that I am looking forward to the fresh challange of bass.

I plan on writing up a report if we have success. I'll PM you with some info when I return.
Cheers,

I am a year away from moving back to Ontario where I have lived most of my life, but a year can go by fast. I can't wait for my first calm morning when I am retired and I cast out, let the surface lure sit until all of the ripples have gone and give the lure a little twitch and then a big bass explode under it.

saw quite a few pikes, carps and a bowfin but no luck. hooked 3 bass and a few sunfish. here's the location.

i fished behind the bike trail last month but the weeds have grown out by now and it was very difficult to fish there. try getting on a canoe or dingy and work your way around the channel. you should find quite a lot of fish in that area. a couple that was canoeing told me that there was a school of carps spawning at the end of the channel. you can try your luck there if you're into carp fishing. overall, the water very clear and the area's quiet. you can find quite some cover where fish can hide. it's a nice spot.
hope that helps and good fishing to you.

I fished there couple of times...closer to waubaushene..out of hog bay I belive ..Ive seen walleye channel cat pike and perch pulled out in good numbers....and you can offshore...try it out there
Hoggs bay located in victoria harbour has some decent fishing action, though it can be slow. Ive seen pike to 25 pounds(4 lbs average), walleye to 7lbs(rare) and bass to 6 lbs.(mostly largemouth) The whole bay is littered with broadleaf cabbage. I cant say i have fished midland/penetang bay much, but i have heard that the walleye are coming out of penetang right now.
