Hi What would be a good shore fishing spot within 2 hours from Mississauga I was thinking near one of the locks in the Kawartha area. Im interested in bass mainly. Thank you
Posted on August 2nd, 2013Hi Randy…All the Kawarths Lakes are excellent for bass. The top ones are Rice Lake, Pigeon Lake & Sturgeon Lake. There is very limited shore fishing access on all of the Kawartha chain of lakes and the Trent-Severn waterway. Best fished form a boat. If you will be shore fishing, best place I can recommend is the Otonabee River, Peterborough, ON. There are many locks on this river and 2-3 in Peterborough. There is good shoreline/wading access and the fishng is especially good just below the dams. Good smallmouth bass, some walleye & large panfish. Best fished with a hook, split-shot sinker about 24″ up the line and live bait like; worms, leeches, crayfish & minnows..God bless you, Italo
