Quinte Fishing

Hello everyone. My apologies for not introducing myself and family eartlier.
We are new to the Quinte area....as in now, residents of.
Normally our fishing grounds have been in the Kawarthas, Lower Bucky, Stony, Pigeon and twice a year out of Picton.
My fish of choice are Esox...muskies, pike and walleye..........although the kids love the smallmouth action.
We are on the Trent river about 2 miles north of Frankford and have a concrete launch as well a dock off our property where Ill put in my little tinbanger. A 16' w/18hp evinrude.....suitable for myself and one other.
I have a smaller craft for the kids w a 2hp-4stroke on it.
My entire family enjoys being on the water and it is only natural to us as the wife an I are both from the east coast of Nova Scotia.
With walleye season just opening and bass and esox soon to follow Im interested in any info that could be thrown my way about the area I live in.
We're not looking for anyones milkrun or honey holes..........species and types of bait info would be great. I dont have a fishfinder yet but will do soon but am sure curious as to the water depths between the locks where I am............We are located just north of the Iroquois RV park and launch on 33.
Thanks in advance and hopefully this year we will have some pics and reports of our own to share.

Let me catch a musky so big that even I wont have any reason to lie about it!

You might want to consider the Moira at some point given your interest in muskellunge. The river, Stoco lake and a few of the tributarys hold varying populations. Welcome to the area.
