Ice
fishing is an opportunity to enjoy Ontario's winter and some great
fishing.
Hardy
Canadians has been chipping holes in winter ice for centuries. The
reward: fine, healthy fish to add to the family dinner table. Today,
visitors to Ontario take advantage of sunny winter and spring days
to savour this unique sport in comfort. Outfitters in the Ontario
north will bundle you into a snug ice hut for an exciting day of fishing.
Exciting strikes with the potential for a trophy make this
fishing adventure second to none.
Nothing tastes better than fresh walleye, pike, whitefish, lake trout,
or perch cooked over an open fire on shore, or on a stove in your
hut.
In the southern areas you can relax in a warm hut on a boreal forest
lake or snowmobile out to fish huts or in to back woods lakes.

Seven Lakes Wilderness Camps has one lake that is accessible for a wonderful winter ice fishing adventure. Ara Lake is one of our most
popular summer fishing camps. So it is no wonder that it is a great winter
camp. The adventure begins long before you get to the camp. You will drive
to a remote spot on a logging road and park your vehicles. You will unload
your own snowmobiles and load up your gear and head out through the forest
for about two miles until you reach the northwest end of Ara. From there it
is ten miles across the frozen, snow covered ice until you reach the camp.
The trip getting there is worth going. Now for the fishing; right out in front of the cabins within 500 to 600 yards is where most of the fishing is done. Tip ups for big Pike and jigging for nice walleyes. And the whole lake is at your disposal to enjoy. For additional information and how to book you adventure, click the link above. Thanks and enjoy the fishing and the snow !!
