🎣 Smallmouth Bass
(4th Sat in June – End of Nov)
Lake Simcoe is Canada’s hidden gem for giant smallmouth bass — 6+ pounders are no myth here. Whether you're a seasoned angler or brand new, I'll guide you to the best spots and techniques for an unforgettable day of bass fishing. Catch & release of all bass very strongly encouraged and bass 4lbs and up are all released on this boat! Combo pike/bass trips available. Best chances at trophy smallmouth in October and November.
🎣 Jumbo Perch
(Peak Fishing in March-May)
Springtime on Simcoe means world-class jumbo perch fishing. We’ll target schools of perch casting with livescope for fast, fun action. Learn the details of finesse fishing goby bottom baits for aggressive pre-spawn perch as well as traditional minnow bait fishing. Catch & release of all big females very strongly encouraged!
🎣 Lake Trout
(2nd Sat in May - End of Sept)
Looking for a challenge? Simcoe lake trout is a trophy fishery with average size of 10+ lbs in recent years - catch & release only on my boat for these giants! Vertical jigging for them is a blast - they rocket up from the depths to chase your bait! This is a big fish hunting trip with fewer numbers than our Muskoka Lakes Lake Trout Trip - an alternative if you are looking to take fish home or chase trophy fish in that region!
🎣 Northern Pike
(2nd Sat in May - End of Sept)
Troll and/or cast for keeper to trophy sized pike all season long. Steady action and beginner friendly techniques make it perfect for families and casual anglers. Combo pike/bass trips available.
