Fishing

With a surface area of 725 square kilometres, Lake Simcoe is southern Ontario's largest body of water after the Great Lakes. Fishing is a year-round sport: the lake completely freezes over most winters, and has been known as the ice fishing capital of Canada. Further inland, some conservation areas also have their own fishing spots, in various rivers and streams.

Tip: walleye, pike, large and small mouth bass, lake trout, yellow perch and whitefish are abundant in Lake Simcoe.
