Inbetween Lake, Ontario: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Inbetween Lake lies in Nipissing District, Ontario. The setting is lake country bush on every side. It covers about 7 hectares, so this is small water you can walk round in under an hour. On size it sits at the modest end of our Nipissing District list. The nearest place of any size is Chalk River, 62 km away. After that come Deep River at 62 km and Mattawa at 69 km. The nearest boundary is a fair way off.

• Where to Fish on Inbetween Lake

  Depth here is unknown, so count the lead down before committing. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Reported across Nipissing District: smallmouth bass, cisco and yellow perch. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water. Inbetween Lake repays a walk before the first cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages move between -13°C in January and 18°C in July. The year splits cleanly: hard water, then open water. Look for the thaw near late April; the fishing lifts straight after. Climate averages put the opening at about late April and the closing near late November. Fish feed hardest at the start and the close of the open season. On Inbetween Lake that shapes the whole year.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public data does not answer the access question here. A campsite lies 1.4 km away for anyone staying over. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. A landowner's word beats anything printed elsewhere. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Little Dickson Lake sits 1.3 km off and takes the overflow.
