We're putting our hut on perch waters Saturday. I'll post info when we get back. Tim is a good hut operator went out with him in 2010. Great day. We caught lots of jumbos. He lets you know whats working good.

Tim is a great guy and one of the best operators on the lake. When perch fishing I either use a slab grabber or a teardrop tipped with a minnow. Others use small spoons...

Good luck and have some fun

Tim and Floyd hales are great. I went out with them also in 2010 and likewise caught a lot of jumbos.

Got our hut out not far from Tim hales huts. Water was kind of murky (by lake Simcoe standards). Fishing wasn't that great but it's still nice to get out. Heading up to Dorset today for our Laker fix.

you can try slabgrabbers but we feel in the deep water they are more of an attractor then catcher.they flutter way outside your hole and are tougher to fish then a forage minnow or rapala.in shallow water especially where you can watch it they do well.

we've been going with him for three years and always have done well on the perch and also he will let you try other huts.not saying your going to get them every time but he treats us well.that is tim hales never been out with Floyd.also I take my auger just in case its slow and get out and look for them only had too one day so far though.

Hi Wee Scot;
I have to speak up on Tim Hales operation !
We have gone with Tim for many years,He runs a clean ,smooth operation and will do his best to help you get into fish . The huts are clean,bait and ride included at a competitive price...

As far as catching fish...As normal first and last ice provide the best fishing.....We have been out with Tim b4 the 50 limit and if we choose we could have filled the cooler with perch ..including many of the so called "Jumbos" With the odd whitie and a few monster walleye,most times out we limited out on lakers and whities when in his deeper huts...

Had to put in my word as Tim among others has a great operation and if our present economy was brighter we would be up twice a week with him....

Wishing you good fishing...

I agree tim hales is one of the best on simcoe.we have been with many hut operators and he has been the best at putting you on fish and treating us great.i will say though only had trouble with one hut operator in all the years I've been there and he just sold his business.these guys want you to keep coming back and do everything to make you want too.

Everyone has their favourites and the hales have a very good reputation.

The fact that on 1 outing did not produce fish is now way to gauge an operation.

maybe .several other factors came into play that day.....fish turn on and off.

early season vs late season.

experience in angling etc.

I I could afford it I would move up there for the winter and fish my heart and soul out.....

Wish I was there today..........sigh..................
