Re: Shirleys Bay reports

Levitch, I am about to get abused by the experts...LOL. God love them and I respect their opinions tremendously but I am not going to risk walking out to where there is current under the ice because Walleye prefer current! I prefer catching fish AND surviving the outing! lol But honestly - please go...

Re: Shirleys Bay reports

Buckhams Bay Hotspots.png Hey Levitch, Don't waste your time bud. Respect for Smitty and Tim as they have exceptional knowledge of Shirleys Bay and are loaded with all of the equipment professionals would use. Personally, I am just a decent fisherman. I have fished Shirley's Bay enough times to kno...

Re: Shirleys Bay reports

Sure Tim....I figured we'd hear from you..LOL! I guess I have just lost all confidence there and as you know it is important ice fishing. Maybe I am not noticing the subtleties of a take given that I may not be paying attention with no confidence in the spot. Gotta pay attention on the ice! I rememb...

Re: Shirleys Bay reports

Shirleys bay has never produced for me. Spent an entire winter there with a hut in 2018 and fished 3 days a week only because it is close to home. I also took multiple separate trips that winter with my other shelter (pop up tent) to Buckhams Bay, Furgenson Lake and White Lake that winter. Without e...

Re: 2019 Ice season, Shirley's bay

.....BTW - my trailer is the silver one in the NCC parking lot. I have a couple of issues regarding towing it right now with the main issue being that we broke the tow hitch latch while removing it. The trailer actually came off the hitch just at the ramp when we were driving off the ice. I bought a...

Re: 2019 Ice season, Shirley's bay

Hey - anyone out there that is able to help me get my Hut of the ice at Shirley's? I have been working at it the last 2 days and don't have a big enough truck or equipment to do this. Spoke with the MNR and they simply make no exceptions as expected....despite the ice still being 30 Inches thick. No...

Re: 2019 Ice season, Shirley's bay

Hey CCLAD - I was out yesterday and there was at least 3 or 4 trucks I saw plowing their way through and went pretty far out. We went out in a 4X4 Jeep Cherokee (More of an SUV) with no issue. 1 Perch and a few hits but nothing else...I like Shirley's Bay because it is closer but I gotta say that I ...

Re: 2019 Ice season, Shirley's bay

Hey everyone! I am new to this site and to Shirleys Bay Ice fishing....last year I invested in a pop-up tent and equipment (no electronics yet). I loved ice fishing so much that I invested in a trailer this year. Last year I fished Buckhams Bay mostly. This year I wanted to set up closer to home hen...
