TROUT G2G LOCATION POLL
So here are the option above. Click and vote on which one you would like to fish. I will put it up for a while and once I feel enough people have voted I will finalize the location.
Fishing isn't a matter of life and death....
It's much more important.

What is access like at Farren?.....I think the last thing FH folk want to do is create issues for cottage owners...at least I don't....
Silver is easily accessible to everyone.....parking should be fine and not too bad of a walk to Laker grounds for people without transportation on ice.....
Muskrat is quite the hike to decent Laker grounds.....
Ice conditions at both Silver and Skrat could be iffy on those dates depending on the winter we get...something else to consider.....
Either way...I'm in.

No fav's, so anywhere is fine by me. Been to Muskrat once for lakers and lost a good one at the hole. Never been to Silver
When hell freezes over, I'll be there icefishing!!!

Experience is that marvellous thing that enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again

Silver is a tough lake, hit & miss. There are decent trout there, but not in any good numbers. I've been there 2x on ice and it was s-l-o-w.
Muskrat is a good choice water, but is a bit too far. I'm not interested in driving 5 hour round trip on my day off.
Farren Lake access is directly (30ft) from the side of a well maintained road. No issue with cottagers, the roadside is public access. MNR will tell you - call em if ya need confirmation.
Parking would have to be figured out - eg park in Bolingbroke then hike/ATV/Sled to the lake. I doubt there would be more than 20 people attending so shouldn't be a prob. I'm in for Farren.

Stands for "Not in my back yard"
Don't want to create any problems, but ...
I've fished Farren before, and will fish it again. I had no problems before, and I don't expect the next time. Some of this is blown out of proportion, one fella had a run-in with another... now the cottager assoc gets a bad rap.
There is no debating the point, the public can legally and rightfully access the lake. The MNR will email you the access point. Bring a copy of the email from the MNR along if it churns your butter.

Sorry if I offended you. Its just a touchy subject. I fish almost exclusivley from shore and cant stand the " NIMBY" types. Give a guy a break. I have met people who say " sure the fishing is good around here. Follow me to my place. park there. wanna use my canoe ? " Then you get these kind of tools " oh god, fisherman. look at them honey....lock the doors." On second thought, maybe I am not sorry.... NIMBY...Ha !!
Steady.
