AFF Lake Clear Outing

Post by **Salar** » Fri Aug 15, 2008 6:25 pm

Hi Everyone,

The Algonkin Fly Fishers are having a fly fishing outing at Lake Clear this Sunday, August 17th. We will be meeting at the Opeongo Mountain Resort boat launch on Lake Clear at 10:00am. There is a fee to launch. We will meeting at Blueberry Island at 2:00 pm for a late lunch. For those who are bringing canoes or kayaks, there is an alternate launch site which is closer to the lunch spot. Details and a map are available from the calendar page of the Algonkin Fly Fishers club website.

Cheers,

Salar

Hi Salar, I was thinking about booking a family vacation at Opeongo. I have 2 sons who are fishing maniacs and my wife can tolerate these resorts if the facilities are clean and the water, beach is suitable for swimming. Do you think I can keep everyone happy there??

Hi Streamtripper,

The fishing in Lake Clear can be excellent. There are some very large smallmouth bass in that lake.

I've never stayed at the Opeongo Mountain resort but I have launched there. The facilities seemed to be clean to me. As for the beach I've never swam there but I know the water in lake clear is very clean and clear.

I'd say you should be able to keep everyone happy.

Cheers,

Salar.

lake clear is very shallow along the edges for a long distance, not so good to swim

There are good places to swim / rock jump off some of the islands.

Opeongo Resort is at the end of the lake (far left on this map by where the creek is)

It is a great lake for fishing and your boys will need a week to fish it.
