In Topic: Mississauga Pond Maps

29 August 2010 - 04:12 PM

hey im new to this site, and new in general to the fishing world. I was looking for some places to fish in mississauga and I came across this post. So anyways, I was looking into pond 44, and was thinking maybe I could go check it out. I went to google maps and found the location. It looks however as if the pond is not even there. If you want to check yourself in google maps, the co-ordinates of the pond are: 43.63533,-79.794012
heres the updated google maps picture.. Does anyone know if the pond is still there?

I went to check it out last year since I worked in that area. The entrance to the road was very small, but when I drove in, I parked my car on a empty lawn. It didn't look like to be anyone's property. As I walked a few minutes to get to the pond. I can barely see it. I don't know how big it was, but there is definitely water there. It was surrounded by thick bushes and I had no intentions of breaking in or walking around it. If I had jeans on that day maybe, but it was too hot and I didn't care too much for it. I feel uncomfortable when fishing at ponds this like. Feel like I'm doing illegal.

Good luck and keep us updated. I probably won't fish there anyways, but interested to know.

I am 99.9% sure you can bring your own boat and launch there, but it's a electric motor lake only.

I was wondering for these type of lakes, what if I bring a boat with a motor attached, but don't use the motor, if that allowed?



Yes I can confirm its allowed, I've seen 21ft bass boats with huge motors in the lake, the gas motor has to be tilted all the way up(not in the water).



Thank you for confirming this.

Thanks for the very helpful post Cypher. I think I will hold off on Island Lake this year. Doesn't seem too appealing for me. I think it would be a lot of fun catching 20-30 pikes, but at the same time, the idea of a slow trolling motor and the $100 rate for a full day rental sucks. If I do go, it'll be a last minute trip.

How long does it take you to get to the deep part of the lake on the rentals?

Do people ever shore fish there? If there a lot of shore spots?

I've been wanting to hit up Island Lake for quite some time, but I heard the fishing pressure was crazy so I held it off for a while. Wondering if it was worth going for some LM's.
