LEARN TO ICE FISH
Once the open water turns to ice, Lake Simcoe comes alive with more anglers than it sees all three other seasons combined. With several ice hut operators around Ontario's 6th largest inland lake it makes it easy for families with or without ice fishing experience to try this great winter sport. For active, hard core ice anglers, the quality and quantity of fish available, brings them back year after year.
Remember that businesses will each have safety protocols in place, so be sure to plan ahead and consult their websites for details.
SAFETY
Tourism Simcoe County encourages all ice anglers and others enjoying our lakes in winter to be extremely cautious. Prior to heading out call a local ice hut operator or tackle shop for the latest ice conditions. It is important to note that those on foot require at least four inches of clear blue ice, while those on a snowmobile or ATV need a minimum of eight inches. Stay clear of open water, pressure cracks and areas with current.
