Quinte Fishing

I plan to heading the quinte bay on the weekend of 10-11 february and have an 8 hours drive to reach the bay and want to make sure that i have a couple spot to fish. The two last years I have fish the Belleville région but I heard on the forum that this area was on open water. I see that guys at big Island can fish and how far from shore tey is fishing and wher they enter the bay. After that I heard a lot about Herchimer and petes point and want to know the same information the distance from shore. Can I have to bring my ATV or snowmobile.

. I fished big bay on monday jan 30th............... ice was soft 4 inches with 2 inches black under ............ they are being happered with rain so its anyones guess as to what the ice will be like in 5 days,,,,,,,,,,, it was very limited at best as it was to begin with. id say leave the bikes, and sleds at home........ doubt you will be able to use them........ i did well about 400 yards off shore but that means nothing cause the fish just move around so be ready to dirll and surch, drill, and surch! . good luck
