I‘m not certain how the fishing on Georgian Bay will be this year as the water is down a good two feet. Not only is this affecting the spawning beds of many fishes, but it is also impossible to get to many of the better fishing spots by boat. With conditions as they are, I suggest you forget all this big-game fishing for a few weeks and get yourself a mess of perch instead. Lake Simcoe perch are quite large Trout season never really ends completely in Ontario. There is not much delay between the fall run and the spring run of rainbows. It is the annual spring run of rainbows that most of us anticipate. I have a bad feeling about this one. Trout season opens officially in most waters April 30. However, a survey of many streams shows that the water level is like the middle of summer. Should the water temperature get any higher, I am safe in saying that most of the fish will have finished spawning and will have returned to the lakes. Unless you are after speckles, good luck! Excellent eating this time of year. they are usually easy to catch and thus provide sport for the whole family instead of the expert fisherman. Likewise, pike is legal quarry in waters belonging to Georgian Bay. Walleye fishing is also permitted in the same waters and there have been some good catches in the Port Severn area. ' Angling for rainbows is quite legal in certain areas of rivers emptying into the Great Lakes. I have been told that fish have been taken as early as the beginning of March in some streams that flow into Georgian Bay and Lake Huron. How about an alternative to the trout, such as jumbo perch or pike? Lake Simcoe is a terrific spot for large perch.

CLOSED SUNDAY Many large bass are taken this time of year, but they must be put back as the season is still closed. I have talked to many anglers in the past who feel that taking a bass this early is not so bad as there are usually many around. What they forget, however, is that the bass has its young ones at this time of year that he must protect. If catching one adult bass means nothing to you, it means certain doom to the whole brood of young. I have found that fishing is best between Sutton and Beaverton. There are usually lots of fish and plenty of elbow room! By the way, lake trout and walleye season opens May 14 in Simcoe and many good fish are taken on light spinning tackle during this time of year. Bait is not much of a problem as most places sell minnows and worms. It is a good idea to get your bait from a place by the water as they usually have some fair fishing nearby and are just too glad to give you a few pointers. For the adventurous angler, I suggest renting a row boat. A motor is not necessary as you need go only a couple hundred feet from shore to find some of the most productive perch fishing. 'l‘ake along life jackets or get some with the boat; the water is still very cold. Take a spinning outfit along and try spinâ€"fishing with a number one silver Mepps. Casting outward from a dock, especially if there is a rock shoal nearby, can be dynamite, as the largest perch seem to hang around these rocks. and the bigger ones have some nice filets. To the best of my knowledge, they are still safe to eat, but this can change any time. the way things have been going lately! Fishing piers are popular spots along the south and east shore of Simcoe. Many a perch has been taken from these free piers simply by fishing with worms or minnows on a float outfit. The nicest part is that the kids can have lots of fun catching fish too.
