Did something STUPID, Help needed Bay of Quinte

In it is various Hopkins Smoothies some with stingers, 10 -12 swedish pimples, deadly dicks, Champs amd much mor...

Moira Lake Quinte Area (west side)

Fished up at the Moira today, fishing was slow although the ice seems fine. Picked up a few perch and marked a whole lot of nothing. Fished off of the cove about 150 yards away from the trestle and found 10 -11 inches of good ice. Nichols Point (as I know it) had 8-10 huts on it . Many open air angl...
