Well no word from anyone on winter success there? How’s the canoeing there once things melt? Big parking/camping area?

Well my earlier planned trip (March 22nd weekend) got kibosched due to a work issue but things are looking up for next week. Gonna try to fish there Monday and Tuesday for one last hardwater rip - stay tuned. In regards to canoeing on Big Ab. It can be done but it is a big (bigger than Nip or Simcoe) very shallow wide open lake that can go from glass to 6 foot rollers in like 10 minutes - seriously it is exponentially worse than say Nip. So if you do it just don't stray far from shore. Camping is at your discretion as entire shoreline is basically crown - so lots of space. Parking again is similar to winter - weekends can be busy but week day not so much. Generally though you should be able to find a place to park.Quote:

Road is sketch as F. Fishing today was very good. Will report when I had have better connection. Probs Wed night or Thursday.
