Toledo Island to Young's Island on Lake Nipissing
From Toledo to Young's Island we will remain in the middle of West Bay of Lake Nipissing The path to the island is reasonably clear and there are several bays where you may fish for Walleye and Northern Pike. Several underwater shoals offer for some great small mouth fishing. Around Young's Island is probably the most treacherous underwater landscape you will find and great care must be taken while trying to fish this area.
