sinker7 114 Report post Posted March 12, 2014 Myself and Alf Barrow hit Squeers today. Put a full day in from 8am-5pm. Here is the summary. Road conditions - Good, snow covered to bare gravel. Smooth ride in 50-60kmh. No issues if you are pulling a trailer. Much faster with no trailer. Trail - Good, moguls throughout. No bare spots. Hill is decent. Back bay is packed no slush. Lake - Slush is everywhere. Crusty snow from the warm weather but not enough to hold any weight. A sled with paddle tracks and decent power will not have any problems. Rubber boots are a necessity. Would not recommend bringing young children with all the water. Fishing - Had to work hard for the fish. The morning bite was decent. Caught fish throughout the day but from noon on the bite was extremely light. Fished from 30-75 feet of water and caught fish. We managed 17 trout with our 10 keepers ranging from 13-18", 1 pike around 15lbs that was released and a bonus perch. Here are the stats posted by the MNR at the check-in station: Day....... # of Angers...... # of Lake Trout.......# of Pike......Biggest Lt...Biggest PikeSaturday......123......................189.......................1...............5.5lbs.............7lbsSunday.........74........................181......................1...............9.5lbs............11lbsMonday.........53........................53........................0................3lbs................0lbsTuesday........29........................54........................1................???................15lbs?? Good luck to those going out for the remainder of the fishery. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TArmstrong 7 Report post Posted March 12, 2014 Nice pike! Heard somebody got a big one out there yesterday. You guys must have been down that far shore? We fished a couple spots but only on the first half or so of the lake and didn't encounter any slush. Headed out again this morning, see how it goes.

pbear 24 Report post Posted March 14, 2014 Cell service was hit and miss out there. No big deal. We caught 5 small lake trout Everything got a little bit soft at the end of the day. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
