norcan lake

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.

i have wanted to fish norcan for a while but never made it.

Is there a launch on it or do you have to boat in from centennial lake/madawaska river?

thanks

And if we're not fishing yet we're getting things ready to go fishing.

I just spent the past hour cleaning the boat out of all the stuff i won't need for the rest of the summer. It's amazing the junk we carry around :roll:

I'm sure someone will be able to answer your question pikeie. Some lakes don't get as much attention as others.

NORCAN LAKE!!!! I can't believe someone else knows this lake!!

OMG, I went on a Bass fishing trip there 2 years ago and it is the BEST LM Bass fishing lake I've EVER been on!

My friend's cabin is on there, and literally every time I stuck in my line I got a nice size bass! I STRONGLY recommend you use a 7" Powerbait Pumpkinseed worm, and stick it on a size 3 or 4 hook, whichever fits best. Don't use any weights, just stick your boat right into the dead heads that surround you on this lake, almost every little pocket has some nice bass spots, and just cast out, let the worm sink and you should see your line move quickly, then SET the hook!

I caught my biggest by a dock where theres a cottage (there isn't a lot on this lake). And it was all alone in its own little bay.

Have a great time on this lake, I wish I could go fishing with you.

My buddy also caught a pike too, but it was mostly bass. And make sure you have a strong test, my line snapped when I had a monster hawg on.

It says on the pack, 7" Power Worm. It has a curl on the tail.
You should see the Power Worm on this page, http://www.lebaron.ca/pdffiles/fishing/berk_pow2.pdf its on the bottom left, above the power shad.

Do you know anyone else on that lake?
