New to this form///Muskie on Pigeon Lake ON

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Fishing Pigeon

Post by fishfanatic »

Hello all, i was browsing the internet for information on Pigeon lake as we are planning our third trip up their this year in June and came upon this forum on muskie fishing on Pigeon. I would be interested in hearing what you guys have to say and let you know that the previous two times we went for bass and walleye, respectively, so the muskie fishing is new to me, but i do Pike fish at home waters in CT.

i've been to pigeon for the last eight to nine years now (one week at a time) in july. i've stayed at ennesmore inn & resort (great food). there is a large rice bed out in front of the camp. me and my son have caught a lot of musky out there. there is a bay farther south called sullivans bay and in june it should be pretty good also.
happy hooking.

Pigeon Lake

Went to Pigeon, watched a gentlemen pull in a 48+ muskie, just a beautiful fish!! Caught plenty of walleye, biggest was 7.2 lbs, excellent weather, excellent time had by all.
