Lundy Lake, Ontario: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  You will find Lundy Lake in Nipissing District, Ontario. Height above sea level is 334 metres. It runs to roughly 41 hectares — big enough to hold fish away from the bank, small enough to learn. The full circuit measures close to 4.6 km on foot. Haileybury sits 35 km from the bank. The big place round here is Greater Sudbury, 113 km distant. No boundary runs near, so the local rules hold throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lundy Lake

  Our records carry no depth, so judge it from the bank. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Reported across Nipissing District: smallmouth bass, cisco and yellow perch. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. Lundy Lake gives up more to patience than to distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages move between -16°C in January and 18°C in July. The season turns properly here, and fish follow it closely. The freeze runs deep into the year, with break-up near late April. Expect the water usable from around late April until roughly late November. The strongest runs come at either end of the open season. The season on Lundy Lake rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. No made access is recorded, so a short walk in is the likely arrangement. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. Should this one be busy, Gilbert Lake is 1.8 km off. Ask locally about Lundy Lake if anything is unclear.
