Lake Memphremagog info

[hockey611]

Looking at heading up to the lake this Friday to Sunday from MA.  Wondering how the ice is??  Am hoping to get into some lakers and will be on foot only so not sure where good access point is. Is the Canadian side worth going to more north?  Any help would be greatly appreciated

the canadian side is better, just dont tell them you are a bruins fan.

[Light liner]

Yes, and they're bacon sucks.

Anyone know how much ice there is on the lake?

Hahaha 🤣

strawberry acres is your best access area to walk out from. Or you can go to eagle point but the parking there this weekend will be a nightmare. Strawberry acres is big and decent fishing walking out a ways.

for sure, the maple syrup too.

Our canadiens sucks so much that we are thinking about becoming Bruins fans!  And our bacon is good.  Just have to pick the right one! 😁

I fished strawbwrry acres a few times and the bite is really good.  Yes our side of the magog is a great fisherie but it really sucks not to be able to fish with live baits.

Hi Bigunit,

Do you fished this year Newport side to Strawberry acres?
This ice is ok to go with my snowmobile this weekend?
It's very sucks not to be able to fish with live bait in Quebec...
For this reason I like to fish Vermont 👍🏻

Thanks!
David

Come to the dark side!  where about on the Canadian side would you walk out from? I gotta head up there at some point this winter to have some fun.  Why did they make that no bait rule anyway??  is cut bait or dead bait allowed

Hi Hockey611,

Many points where you will can to go.

- Grey= Cedarville
- red= Val Perkins
- black= Georgeville
- orange= Knowlton landing
- green= Bryan Landing
- blue = Magog

Georgeville, Knowlton landing or Val Perkins are good points.

Cut bait or dead bait it's ok.
5 lines max tip up or jig
Rainbow, Brown and salmon it's ok but laker is closed.

The end season is March 31th each year.
Licence 1 day for no resident= 19.04 cad.

Good luck! 👍🏻

Good stuff. Thanks bud.  If I don’t make it up for ice I think a after ice out laker trip in the boat is in order.

Does anyone know how much snow is on the ice on the main lake of Magog. Headed up tomorrow morning to try my luck. Thanks in advance for any reply's.

[TRT]

My buddy drove on yesterday but said the ice was iffy. Good black ice was limited with a lot of mixed crap
on top from the snow, slush freeze.  He did not venture far from shore.
I can tell he regrets driving on. He said fishing was ok, was perching.

Thank you TRT for the reply, my truck will stay on solid ground but may bring the sidexside up. We will be mostly perching to but will take whatever comes along.

[VTLakers]

13-14 inches of ice from Eagles Point to the Islands

Thank you for the reply VTLakers.

[VTLakers]

Hardwater,

They have been driving out to the islands in trucks as well. The launch looks like someone broke through and everyone kept driving through the hole to get to the lake. So if you plan on driving out stay to the left of the hole and you "should be ok." Don't quote me though.

Appreciate the info VTLakers, looks like we will are going to take the Rhino with tracks out tomorrow, plan is to head towards the islands. Good luck to you, tight lines.

[VTLakers]

Let us know if you catch anything out there. I heard theres a few nice fish getting pulled through on the Canadian boarder.

[Hardwater Renegade]

We did pretty well perching on friday. Took home about 50 yellows and got into some whites as well. Was a beautiful day to be on the lake.

[VTLakers]

Thats great, Im going to South bay tomorrow hoping for a big pike.

[Light liner]

We just got off magog.
Fished strawberry acres, first few hours of light was slow.
About 8 am- 11 am perch bite was good.
Pin heads were the preferred bait for them

[Hardwater Renegade]

Good luck to you on south bay, there are some beauty pike in there if you can find them.

[VTLakers]

Nothing Huge but did happen to get a 6 pound 31.5 inch Pike.

[Hardwater Renegade]

VTLaker

That is a good eater size pike right there, glad to hear you had some luck and didn't get skunked. Thanks for sharing the picture with everyone.
