Half Day Fishing Trips Near Me Kawartha Lakes

You can stop looking for ‘Half Day Fishing Trips’ in Kawartha Lakes. At GOAT Angling Adventures we’ve got you covered, providing tours based in Lindsay, Fenelon Falls, Bobcaygeon, and Peterborough. The Kawartha Lakes are known for having an impressive selection of freshwater lakes and waterways with a great supply of fish, and it has that reputation for a reason. No matter what time of year you come (and which open season regulations are in place) there’ll be plenty of fish for you to hunt. Under the guidance of our experts, you’ll have a fun and informative day on the water.


Ready to get started? Here’s our process:

  1. You assemble a group together and let us know where you want to fish. We operate in Balsam Lake, Buckhorn Lake, Cameron Lake, Chemong Lake, Pigeon Lake, and Sturgeon Lake. Some of these will be better than others if you want to hunt a particular breed, so it’s good to be open-minded.

  2. We’ll discuss the goals, expectations, and expertise levels of your group members and develop a customised half-day trip plan based on that information. Is someone keen on hunting walleye? No problem. We’ll plan our half day fishing trip for early morning or later in the evening.

  3. You can have a fun day on the water in our fully-rigged Ranger Bass boat!

All tours are guided by owner and operator Mike Quesnelle, who has over 30 years of fishing experience and is well-known in the angling community. During our tours you’ll learn about different casting techniques and lure options, and also be informed about the behaviour patterns of different fish species. Fishing doesn’t take a one-size fits all approach; for the best results, you’ll need some knowledge about preferred environments and hunting/feeding patterns of specific fish. 

Muskie, for example, are opportunistic predators that like waiting in weedlines that are adjacent to the deepest part of a waterway - particularly when the weather gets hot. It’s easier to find them at dawn and dusk, and we recommend baiting them with large bucktail lures. Other fish, however, require a completely different approach. Whether you’re looking for walleye, carp, or bass, we’ll make sure you have the information you need to make it a successful half-day fishing trip in Kawartha Lakes.

We love fishing, and we’re excited to share our knowledge of the sport with you. Whether you’re a novice or an angler looking to upgrade your skill set, you’ll leave our fully-rigged Ranger Bass boat feeling informed, confident, and excited about your next half-day fishing trip.
