Big Joe Lake fishing

Post by **NavanFisher** » Tue Jun 02, 2009 10:30 pm

Well, after some thinking rather than the Almonte area we decided tp try big joe lake and flower lake ? Any idea if there are other lakes in that area and are these lakes are even worth fishing ?

Thanks
Tom

Didn't realize I had a lake named after me!

Yes there are, Big Joe is OK, you can also fish the Clyde River there as well. If you want to go car topper there are a bunch of lakes back on the old logging roads that are worth exploring.

We've fished up there since we were teenagers. Almost always have the lake to yourself.

I have caught and seen fair size largemouth and smallmouth bass in Joes. Good luck.

I didn't realize that FlowerRound had anything other than Smallmouth and Largemouth in it. What did you catch?

Joe's lake is apparently stocked with Brooks to go along with the bass and occasional pike you'd catch.
Clyde River is also stocked with Brooks, but towards Lanark.

Widow lake, between Joe's and Flower Round is supposed to have Walleye.

If you're coming from Almonte, Dalhousie lake could also be decent at times.
