Callander Bay

I'm thinking about going for a ride to Lake Nipissing and try to catch some supper this weekend. Hows the fishing in Callander Bay? How deep is the water, any deep spots? thanks

I fish this spot in the summer and the fishing is great in the winter I fish the same place 10 to 20 feet from dock works for me 10 to 15 feet deep in this aria .....

the bay is crusting over nicely cant wait to fish it this year ,, the count down is ON ,,,,

went down and drilled a few hols off shore 8 in out 100 yards 5 in looking good a little snow covered but still freezing ,,,,,

I was also thinking of going up from Guelph this weekend.
I would probably think of trying the south bay as its most likely frozen over already, never mind the islands that break the waves that destroy the ice.
That or maybe little lake in Barrie. I know that place is rocking right now. But you mainly get 3 lb pike only.
Either way, let me know what you hear is safe

Last Sunday a guy was fishing on Little Lake on 9 inches of ice.
Walking in he hit a thin spot and went for a swim....he was okay!!!
Still a little early for safe ice in a lot of spots right now.

Plus nip is closed till jan 1 better read regs then worry for ice conditions.

Nip is closed till jan 1 ,, Nosb is open right now

Had no idea nip was closed. Thought it was for hut operators only, but as always, thanks for the info guys.
Is anyone fishing nosbonsing?
I had a buddy that went out on the lake yesterday and he said the ice was in good shape.... And it will be just fine for Saturday given the forecast stays on our side.

See above post........Nosbonsing is in zone 11 as well, closed until Jan.1 2014.

nipissing is an exception in the regs.

He's good to fish Nosbonsing.

Zone 11: Jan. 1 to 3rd Sun. in Mar. & 3rd Sat. in May to Dec. 31[B]

SORRY ,,, FatRap was misinformed about Nosb,, it is open right now,,

Bay is looking great for ICE should be good to go come OPENER,,

I've heard of no such report for Little Lake, and I've been out there a couple times this year. That might be last year you heard about. As a general rule most people stay clear from the silver creek mouth in the north east corner of the lake. Best ice and fishing tends to be just off the trailer park and out in the middle of the lake.

Looks like there finally working on the dock wonder if it will be ready for opener next summer
