beretta Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Hey guys, I am looking for a little bit of help. Im tyring to narrow down a few lakes to try for late ice pike fishing. I have done the Lake of the Woods thing (MN side) and dont like the crowds. Im wondering if anyone can give me a couple suggestions for lakes that I could have a decent shot at a few 40" fish? I have been trying to find information on some of the lakes north of the border like winnipeg, manitoba ect. but I cant really find very much. Im not looking for a honey hole, just a general area or lake. I have a snowmobile if that helps. Is Shoal lake (SW Ontario) worth looking at? I am a firm believer of catch and release for those big pike.....Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Head Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 The Canadian side of Rainy has some monsters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnum mike Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Not to steal your thread Beretta, but has the late ice tip-up action around Springsteel turned into a circus? I told some of my guys about fishing there 20 years ago and it was a blast. They want to try it but I hate crowds as much as anyone.I would also suggest Rainy for big slimers. Try an outfitter like Woody in Int'l Falls. I stayed there last March and the pike guys caught some nice fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
