Good news, thank for sharing.
Update. Took a ride up to Orillia this morning, first stop Trombly's, hmm, open at 8 for Saturday, 10 on Sundays, must only have "afternoon anglers" on weekends. Rest of the week, it's 9am. Didn't ask how much, didn't want to suffer a Schwarzennegger size tumour. Then off to Fisherman's Cove, docks in, water seems a bit high. There's room to park 8, maybe 9 truck/trailers. Everywhere else along that loop and street has the big No Parky, ticky zone. Off across the highway to Thudhope Park, unless my eyes deceived me, I didn't see any pay parking signs or ticket dispensers. Then off to Centennial Park, disaster, closed completely for construction. I didn't go to any of the marina's like blue Beacon to check for launch and park/fees. That's up to you. As for Jacob's Bait on 11N, it sort of looks deserted, up to you to find out. Cheers and hope for those that go, have fun.
WOW... All those names brought back a lot of memories. Well, at least the names that I can still REMEMBER. LOLQuote:

I never quite understood the hoopla around the derby, as I never thought there are more perch there than other places in Simcoe or the Cooch...
