Soft grey light all day today, with a persistent wind from the SSW and no real change in pressure. Activity on Conboys Lake should centre on the margins and the shelf beyond them. Quiet conditions all day, with the morning marginally better. Quiet tactics only; the fish will not chase today.

You will find Conboys Lake in Frontenac County, Ontario. What surrounds it is pine and birch. Small at around 3 hectares: two anglers spread out cover most of it. It is one of the smaller waters we list in Frontenac County. For supplies, Sharbot Lake is 7.5 km out. Kingston is the closest city, 65 km away. The nearest boundary is a fair way off.
No depth figure has reached our records, which makes a plummet useful. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Frontenac County records list pumpkinseed, bluegill, rock bass, smallmouth bass and yellow perch among the fish reported. The county figures include rivers and lakes alike. On Conboys Lake the obvious spot is not always the productive one.
Seasonal averages run from -10°C in January up to 20°C in July. Hard water is a season in its own right here. Hard cover is dependable here; it goes around mid April. Climate averages put the opening at about mid April and the closing near early December. The middle of summer slows a little, with dawn and dusk carrying it. That shapes the year on Conboys Lake.
Whether the bank is open is not something our records settle. Nothing is mapped in the way of a ramp or car park within a short radius. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Where a permit is needed, the nearest town usually sells it. Keep proof of licence with you rather than in the car. The nearest alternative is McLaughlin Lake, 3.4 km out. None of that is settled for Conboys Lake in what we hold.
