From shore

 

 

Wading from shore

 

 

Spots are there...but you'll have to do some homework to find them. Sorry I can't share because there is something called trust between friends who shares spots with each other, and not outside of the group.

 

From shore, you are more likely to find good spots along rivers than in lakes. Understanding seasonal movement is important in certain areas, and understanding time of day is important too.

niceeeee! well mixed info, so i think i wil try all of them some say its also patience and luck., well i think if you've found a spot, its no longer luck havent caught anything big yet, does a 6lb largemouth count? i aim for something bigger heading to scugog this weekend, test my luck there, although im not farmilliar with the place, just have to wait and see scout around.

Which area you in? have a car?

im in toronto, and yes i do have a car. anywhere from 1 - 2 hours drive, lots say the fish are there, i just dont know to find them.

i guess its not possible to catch them from shore, i mean drop offs are far from shore. and even if there are any dropoffs near shore, how you supposed to find them. never seen any drop offs, well i dont really know what drop offs look like. went to jackson's point, had lots of fun catching gobies.. derrr! few big perch too. was aiming mainly for basss,, been casting all sorts of baits.. cranks, top water, divers, worms, my entire box! mostly weeeds and moss underwater. after a good 4 hours, switched to live worms and stay with perch, although there were perch right along the side, they dont seem to want to bite live worms, even rubber worms.. they would chase and turn around. although i caught a few perch, i felt like i got skunked.. heheh except for the 30 gobies i caught,, a fellow angler told me he likes to take them home.. if he told me earlier.. could've donated them to him.

I appreciate that you appreciate that it is a great fish, but it will ruin Rice Lake. As much as I love fishing for pike, I have certain lakes for that. Rice is not one of them...

heyyyy where would you suggest to catch pike from shore??

nice, pike on rice lake, sadly i dont have a boat heheh, been all over the place, catching the common sunfish perch bass, but i keep being told about pickerel and walleyes, they say there's lots out there now, i hope you dont need a boat to catch em, i'd like to take 1 or 2,, see for myself what the talk is about those fish. caught a strange light colored fish, either its a white bass or something else, @ jackson's point.
