Simcoe Fishing Adventures is a first class, year round operation. Located on Cooks Bay, Lake Simcoe in the town of Keswick. Located just 45 minutes north of Toronto, we are a reasonable drive away for GTA clients and from the Canada/US border. Lake Simcoe, one of the larger inland lakes is known as the “Ice Fishing Captial Of Canada”. Lake Simcoe is a bustle of activity both in winter and summer. There are over 60 species of fish that inhabit Simcoe waters, including bass, pike, lake trout, whitefish, walleye, perch and crappie. During the winter ice fishing season here at Simcoe Fishing Adventures, we mainly target perch and pike in Cooks Bay.

Your guide and host Rick Arsenault aka “Whitey” has over 30 years on Simcoe and has been putting clients “on fish” for the past 8 years of our operation. Our winter services include daily hut rentals, or an all inclusive package including meals, lodgings and your hut rental. We also cater to corporate outings, school outings or other “customized” group events during the winter ice fishing season. Our summer services include daily boat rentals for local clientele or longer stays including lodgings, boat rentals and housekeeping accommodations.

We put the safety and comfort of our clients first and gladly share the knowledge of the fishery and tips for the success of your outing. Please contact us for further information on your outing.
