| Lake Simcoe 14 Jan 12 I was out there yesterday on Cooks Bay. Much of the rest of the lake is not safe yet. 3 1/2" of solid very hard ice. Lots of noise as it was making ice all day & with last nights cold (-22 deg C & currently -15 deg C) I would guess it would have added close to an other inch +. Fished straight out from Gilford in 13 1/2 fow & the bite was non-stop. For the day myself & a buddy must of caught close to 500 perch. Most in the 6"- 8" range with a few bigger ones including a 13 1/2" one George got. Yesterday it didn't matter what you threw at them as they hit everything we tried. I mostly stayed with different jigs as minnows were not needed & I didn't have to keep re-baiting. We both brought enough of the larger ones home for a good meal. We also caught about 5 herring each all between 14"- 16". Don't confuse these with whitefish as the season for herring is closed on Simcoe.

| Re: Lake Simcoe 14 Jan 12 It was about -11 C yesterday but we had a pop-up hut with propane heater. My buddy took a couple pictures but I've not seen them yet. Other than the one large perch the sizes were not anything special. I'll make sure to take pictures next time out.
