Quinte Fishing

On Thursday my friend Danny caught two new nice pickerel at our new favorite secret hot spot in the first 10 minutes at the spot. #1 fish approx: 5-7 lbs #2 fish probably 7lbs to 8lbs.
This is what we did... first you need to be staying at the Picton Harbour Inn to find the spot. Head out from Picton Harbour Inn, head over to Adolphus Reach and consider
including Pryners cove, the bat cave, and keiths shoal and the light house in your pattern. If after 2-3 hours and you dont mark fish or much bait and go without a pickerel hit do what we did.
With only one nice 10 lb pike to show for our trip and darkness approaching we headed back to Picton Harbour Inn and parked the boat on the breakwall and sat outside in the balmy November weather talking with fellow fishermen while enjoying a snack and beverage.
Then Dan casts his line in playing around with a salt water spoon throwing toward a few swirls 20ft away, (think its a
Sebile Vibrato spoon) with this crazy eractic flutter when it descends.. anyway within 10 mins he brings in 2 very nice pickerel.

Must say we enjoyed all of the new improvements at the Picton Harbour Inn with my favorites being the much stronger Wifi connection and trailer parking location.
PS Dan gave the fish away to someone at the Inn that said they had never tasted Pickerel before. Not my choice, but good Karma I assume !

Back in the day people would be lined up at the docks in front of tip of the bay and casting till the wee hours . lots of eyes caught there. Hardly a new hot spot but worth mentioning for sure.
