Fishing

New fishing regulations for Lake Nipissing for 2022. You can view the regulations @ https://www.ontario.ca/document/ontario-fishing-regulations-summary/fisheries-management-zone-11#section-3

Lake Nipissing has one of the most underrated smallmouth fisheries in the province. Northern Pike are plentiful and every year muskie in the 25 – 30 lb. range are caught in Callander Bay. Lake Nipissing is known for the walleye and we are situated right next to their major spawning grounds. If you’re planning a family vacation, the kids are certain to enjoy catching the numerous pan fish.
