Heavy overcast holding through the day, with a useful WSW wind pushing food about with the barometer flat. Start the search at Little Blackstone Lake along the margins and the shelf beyond them. The strongest window is the evening. Fish tidy and take what the day gives. Autumn fish are feeding up and less fussy than in summer.

Little Blackstone Lake lies within the bounds of Parry Sound District, Ontario. The country round it is pine and birch from end to end. It measures about 48 hectares, which is a comfortable size for bank fishing. The outline measures near 5.2 km, so local knowledge counts. By elevation it sits in the lower part of our Ontario listings. The town to know is Parry Sound, 19 km out. Penetanguishene follows at 44 km, then Midland at 48 km. A county boundary sits nearby, which can matter for local access rules.
Depth is unknown to us, and the shoreline is the better guide. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Records held for Parry Sound District cover smallmouth bass, pumpkinseed, yellow perch, northern pike and rock bass. County data is a starting point rather than a guarantee. Work Little Blackstone Lake in sections rather than trying to cover it.
The seasonal spread runs -9°C to 19°C. Hard water is a season in its own right here. Ice fishing carries the winter, and the water opens about mid April. Break-up sits around mid April on average, with the water closing again about early December. May into June fishes hardest, and September gives a second good stretch before the lid returns. Plan any trip to Little Blackstone Lake around it.
Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. This is a natural basin, not a dammed one. Access is unmapped, which usually means a farm track and a walk. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving. Where parking is tight, arriving early solves most problems. La Force Lake sits 2.8 km off and takes the overflow. For Little Blackstone Lake in particular, ask before you travel.
