Splake

Hey Guys,

Looking to fish splake for the first time - Where can I find them? Best bait? etc.

Thanks for the info.

Check the stocking lists for Haliburton , Sudbury and north east and west ontario , they show how many stocked and when ... best of luck ..post your results ..

Sorry! I should have been more clear! I know what lakes they are in, but never fished them. Looking for tips!

Thanks

Fish for them in 4 to 22 ft of water. Look for timber or rocks. Small white tubes and live minnows worked best for me. When they are on you catch double digits. When they are off, you skunk.

I hope this helps,
Alex

Thanks Alex,

I'll report back, I'll be out Saturday.

As an aside, does anyone know when I can PM?? Every-time I try I'm told I don't have permission.

Thanks

I think once you are a fry which is 25 posts.

Thanks Ice_addict.

have got them on small spoons also. a sonar will be a big help. the harder the lake is to get to, the better the fishing typically lol. but i guess that could be said about all fishing not just splake lakes

Thanks jstrooms.

That is fishing, still a little early for the snowmobile and bushwacking! Soon tho.

I have found small spoons tipped with wax worms or minnow heads to be effective.

Awesome thanks!!! I'll head out this weekend and report back!

Just reporting back .. No fish, very slow, only a few marks.

I'll keep at it and get back to you all.

Thanks for the time and advice.
