Got back home Sunday night.  Days were drizzling rain and cool nights.  No fishing....just camping...and the campfire felt really good.  Did see a couple of more canoes in the distance but have no idea if they were fishing.

Next for me is April 27, probably Kioshkokwi.

Tight lines in 13 days.

There are some access.point restrictions so visit Algonquin Park home page.

See ya....I have gone canoeing and camping (and fishing for certain fish species)!

Anyone else going interior camping, stay safe and paddle close to the shoreline.  And take extra precautions for starting a campfire just in case.

Just google canoe motor mount....many options. Also a DIY video to make your own which I did.  I have never used my motor mount on Opeongo, but have used it with my Evinrude 4hp on Cedar, Kioshkokwi and North Tea taking canoe and motor over the 2 small portages on the Amiable du Fond river.  Stashed them in the forest with chain and lock for security just before portages to Biggar where we canoed up Biggar creek (not recommended.due to alders and low water and other obstructions).  Then, we bushwhacked with canoe and gear over to Osler Lake for some good trout fishing. Picked up motor etc on way back out and motored back out to where we started on Kawawaymog Lake.

Don't need a boat.  I built my own or you can buy this apparatus that allows you to put a 5hp motor on the side of your canoe.  Once across Opeongo or any big lake, I just stash the motor and apparatus in the woods until my return.

White Partridge is correct. You're up.

That is a great trip report. Read your report many years ago. Always remember your report stating that the cart trial is sandy!Β

Pen is a viable option for catching trout in May.  You also have the option of going on a day trip to Welcome, Harry and Rence which too are speck lakes.
