Quinte Fishing

I'm Looking at giving Finkles a try. I have never fished there but I'm eager with the new boat. Will the fish be too deep to catch without a down rigger or will lead core line suffice. Also what's the general area without crowding or just follow the boats.. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance Tom

Tom, I’ve caught on 5 colour core lots and also cranks and boards like walleye. Snap weights are also a good bet with spoons. Fish are 15-60+ fow but you don’t have to be on bottom. There are lakers everywhere in the finkles area this time of year. Look for structure with steep drop offs or rocky flats.

Good luck!

Lots out fishing today, parking lot was full. Talked to a couple guys and like myself, enjoyed the day out and washed the winter dust off some lures, but no trout.

We made it out at Finkles today, a full lot as expected. It was a calm day and 39 degree water trolled at 2.4 mph. We tried off Pigs Point in 80 fow. between the bouys and around the point where there was a couple boats fishing there as well. No nets seen and no strikes, we ventured a line down across in front of the hydro plant nothing and finally over to the south east point side of Adolphus Reach also a big zip. We tried Williams wobbler spoons and large Minnow strikes with a flasher in front.. Will give it a try again tomorrow,,.....4 hrs no fish but a great day

If your boat will troll down I would try 1.5 to 1.9 we were trolling at 2.1 on Saturday and I suspect we were a bit too fast but didn't have the bags with us. We did manage 1 fish but a couple of boats did better and I suspect they were going slower than us.

Thanks, I'll make up a couple trolling buckets to try tomorrow, and hit bass pro website to price a couple socks, then Ill check with pro tackle before I order, Thanks for the advice..

We got bit once at 1.5 but all the others were 1.9-2.2

Did well Saturday. Sucked Sunday.

Made it out again today, the wind was nasty but got the boat to troll to between 1.6 and 1.8 with 2 buckets out. Fished at the island near Pigs Pt again to stay out of the wind, all around 35ft and less.. I ran Williams spoons and my buddy tried everything else for trout.... Nothing to show but a sunburn, Ill keep trying.

Another newbie to Finkles here.
If the parking at the launch is full, can you park down at the shore park?
If not , any other options?
Hoping for maybe next week. but want to install autopilot and a new HDS7 if possible.
Thanks.
Mitch

On Monday they parked on the road and I saw not tickets on the trucks..
