Hello Italo. I will be visiting family on Colpoy's bay (Wiarton, Ontario) in mid June, and bringing my kayak and spinning outfit along with me. I've never fished these waters specifically before, just wondering if you had any ideas of what to expect and how to approach the fishing there? Thank you

You have a couple of options. You can fish right in the Bay and target smallmouth feeding around the shallow structure & especially around the boat docks/bottom of the Bay right in Wiarton, ON. I would suggest you fish 4″ tubes/jigs & drop-shot rigs with TriggerX Leech, or a 4″ worm rigged “wacky-style”. Your other option is to explore some of the smaller in-land lakes close to Colpoy’s Bay that have bass/panfish.
