WHAT? you have access to there?@?!?
Thats the small lake that had the largest LMB record in Canada! From previous discussions, it was very hard to get access to these waters without getting kicked out!
And I think the main fish in there is LMB, so I dont know what youre going to catch.....and LMB's are out of season right now..

i believe that lake is surrounded by private property...
you probably have a friend that owns waterfront property there huh?
even if you do get out, i'm sure other landowners are gonna give you earfuls about fishing on that lake.
who knows though...
let us know how it goes.

I've never fished in Preston, but I would try maggots.

just did some more research, there are perch, bluegill, sunfish and bass as the main fish in the lake, so i will target perch.

One thing to remember, you can't target bass. They are out of season and even trying to catch one and then immediately release it is illegal. Take pictures...........
