Going to Kipawa (Grindstone Lake) for first time

[SteveC]

Hello all!

I've really enjoyed reading many of the posts on this forum! I feel I now have some insight on what this area has to offer and how to fish it somewhat. I'm travelling from Kentville Nova Scotia and meeting up with two brothers from Ontario for this trip. We will be on Grindstone lake June 14 - 18, 2019 - Miwapanee Lodge : Grindstone Lake Cottage. Hoping to get some intel on hot spots in this area for walleye, lakers, bass and pike. Confirmation of the better fishing techniques to use would also be very helpful.

Fishing is the excuse for us to get together, but its always nicer to catch a few as well:))!

Many thanks in advance!

Stayed at that cabin a few years back in early-June; walleye were plentiful not far from the cabin. You're not likely to get into any bass down there, and we didn't fish for lakers to any degree. Picked-up a few pike in common "pike spots". The best tip I can give you...be ready for a bug-fest. Whew...I remember many things about that trip, but the bug onslaught sticks most in my memory.

Thanks T-Bone - we are expecting the bugs to be bad and hopefully prepared for it!

Steve,

The trip will be a great success for these few reasons:

• Beer taste better in Kipawa then anywhere I've ever drank it
• Hangin with your bro's for a week anywhere, let alone Kipawa rocks!
• If a newb like me can catch 20+ walleye a day, you're golden
• Fish early, Fish late and relax in between
• If one leech ain't getting business done, put on a second
• Did I mention Beer?
