hog island whats going on do you live right on the island. I can not believe that the bait shop is not doing the shanties anymore. Did they sell them off to the farm? I used to live on that farm years ago and the house right across the street and down the road on the other farm.....jim s
-
the family that owns lakewood campground bought out the shanties a few years back they have their own access area now too hogs island bait has a few shanties but mostly for their family we have probably a dozen shanties and are planning to build more for this year last time i heard there was little ice and the shanties will probably be on right after new years if all goes well
-
thats cool do you live on the farm?
-
no but im close friend to the family im usually the guy snowblowing the lake during my break
-
cool

pike and perch
Thanks. I might have to try the Pike as I can't get into doing the Perch thing :tipup:
-
Are the pike coming from the shollows near tabors point?.....jim s
-
Hog can you tell me if the Mobil is still selling bait right as you turn onto R78 in Swanton?...jim s
-
the pike are being caught near church road. tabors i hear is not froze yet. and yes, north country bait and tackle is suppose to have bait but i not sure what they have yet.

I've been going to Holiday Harbor the past few years. Fishing has been O.K. always managed to get at least 1 pike > 8lbs but slow at times. Nice shacks & if your traveling you can rent a room there, clean & with a kitchen. Never have to go on the the road at all. They have had decent bait but I don't know how the new regs are going to affect that. The Owners are good people. I would definitely recommend it
-
I agree with sdog. I rented a shanty at holiday harbor for fifty bucks for the day and it included wood for the woodstove. We caught 5 Pike and a few perch. Nice people to do business with. Great experience. I Am planning on ging back this year. Holiday harbor is located on Grande Island. Bait selection was a bit poor.
