I'm new to the board, but not BOQ.

Heading up to Hay Bay with the wife and kid this weekend. Have never had much daytime luck this time of the year... and I'm not really prepared for night fishing. Sooooo, In light of the type of season already in progress on Quinte... Bring the boat and fish? or Leave the boat home, stay on shore and drink Vex?

Also wondering if the water is still as high as it was in mid-May? What has the average surface water temps been as of late... mid-50's?


Regards,

:D Have had good fishing in the morning from 7 till noon in the area across from Pickerel Park. We call it the flats. Its about 9-12 feet deep and we were using Hay Bay Bandits (silver and gold worked best) with a worm. Got 4 walleye and 3 northerns last week.Water even higher than in May did not check temp. Good fishing

Group,

Had fun on Quinte these past days. Although the overall time spent fishing was limited between 4 - 5 hours... it was grand.

Those hours were split between late Sunday morning and late Monday morning... across from Pickerel Park ( of course ).

Caught only one and thankfully it was under the slot. I am proud to say my 5-year old son caught it!!! (Home-brewed crawler harness 6mm Raspberry beads, #4 Willow blade with some Raspberry Witchstix tape.

The walleye was caught in 11 feet of water. The water seemed to be at least in the high 50's if not the low 60's.

I heard of others going to this spot and using suspending crank baits on slow drifts as well. Seems that orange belly shad colors are doing well. They were using a crank and hang style... bringing the bait down, letting it suspend for a few moments, then pumping it a few times before bringing it back in. Sounds good to me.

Good luck to all with the upcoming Bass season. I be back up in Autumn when the big pigs start working their way back in.


:lol:
