Globe Lake, Ontario: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  You will find Globe Lake in Timiskaming District, Ontario. The water sits 377 metres up. Surface area runs to about 7 hectares — small enough to read in one session. It is one of the smaller waters we list in Timiskaming District. The town to know is Temiskaming Shores, 34 km out. Further out sit Haileybury (40 km) and Englehart (42 km). It sits well inside the county, so one set of rules covers it.

• Where to Fish on Globe Lake

  Depth here is unknown, so count the lead down before committing. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Open biodiversity records for Timiskaming District list brook trout, northern pike, yellow perch, Iowa darter and walleye. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. Read Globe Lake for ten minutes before the first cast goes out.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The range across the year is -16°C to 18°C. The year runs cold to warm and back, with clear transitions. Count the season from break-up, usually late April. From about late April to around late November, expect open water on the long-run figures. The open run goes from the thaw to the freeze, and April through October covers most of it. Plan around that when you fish Globe Lake.

• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. We find no slipway, car park or made path within a short radius, so treat access as rough. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Rules for this water may differ from the county norm. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. East Kidd Lake, 2 km away, makes the obvious fallback. For Globe Lake, the notice at the access point is the final word.
