If you’re looking for a place where you can cast your line in peace, away from the crowds, you’ll probably like Lakeshore in Ontario, Canada. Nestled right in between three very fishable bodies of water – Lake St. Clair, Lake Erie, and Detroit River – the Lakeshore fishing scene has a lot to offer to a passionate angler.
With two lakes and one river, it’s safe to say that you’ve got your angling choices wide open. Spend your spring fishing the Detroit River for Whitefish, Smallmouth Bass, Crappie, and more. Come summer, hit Lake Erie for big Musky and Walleye, or head to Lake St. Clair for a variety of freshwater species.
Anglers who don’t mind the Canadian cold can come to Lakeshore in the winter for some ice fishing and enjoy the top-notch bite of Pike, Walleye, and Yellow Perch. Whatever your angling appetite, you’ll have a good time in this quaint little town.
Coming to Lakeshore for the first time? It’s strongly recommended to find a charter that can take you to the fish. Local guides have plenty of experience fishing in the area, and they usually have a variety of trips on offer. If there’s a particular species you’d like to target (Musky, Walleye, Bass), some guides offer specialized excursions where you’ll target only the fish of your choice.
Reglas & Regulaciones
Anglers who want to get a taste of Lakeshore fishing action need to be informed about Ontario fishing regulations and daily limits. Canadian and US citizens need both an Outdoors Card and a valid fishing licence before they start fishing.
You can choose between a Conservation and Sport licence. If you want to fish for one day only, you don’t need an Outdoors Card, but you will need a special one-day sport licence.
