Well this year will be the 5th or is it 6th Annual Guys and Eyes weekend at Bay of Quinte. I say weekend but it usually extends a full 5 days, and Once again it looks like the conditions will be different from last year. The first year we were there there was an ice fishing village of permanent huts at Huffs. Once we figured out how to fish huffs the next year ice was sketchy. Then there was the year Huffs didn't even freeze. We've fished potters, big bay, huffs, shermans pt, Herc you name it but it seems every year the conditions are different than the last. That being said we have always had success with quinte hogs but have to work at it the first couple days to find out the pattern. From what I'm hearing on the board the ice is good again this year which opens up the entire bay for fishing. I've attached links to a couple videos from our previous years of fishing for you viewing pleasure because who doesn't like fish porn Right?

This year we have a group of 4 guys Frozenflyguy, Randler, and AllInDan, including 4 go pro cameras and lots of gear so hopefully we will have some additional video after our trip late Jan. My question is weather there will be a permanent ice fishing village again this year at Huffs, and if you can buy shiner minnows anywhere or just the fathead minnows (mudminnows).

Bulpits has both muds and golden shiners. Good luck this year were heading up for 7 days at the end of the month so I hope the fish cooperate. Cheers

Not sure where you're coming from, but if you're coming from the west you should be able to get Emerald shiners in Pickering at Tightline. Brock Rd./401 Only problem is they won't be open if you're coming through early in the morning.

Thanks Guys for the advice on where to pick up shiners. I know the mudminnows (fathead minnows) last longer on the hook but the shiners add more flash.

Im new to here but have fished a lot of open water. Canada and the US. Where are you guys from? Always good to meet fishermen from other parts. I do some salmon charters in the summer but honed my walleye skills in Northern Ontario. I have also fish the water of Michigan and New York for walleye on soft water. mostly tournaments. Here is my number and if you would like to hook up when you are here for a pint, that would be cool. Good fishing tales, some true some not so true are always good. My number is 905 984 0183.
