Hey, so we are heading up to Cosy Cove cottages this Sunday and will be there until either Wednesday or Thursday. Hoping to catch some nice perch & walleye. Does anyone have any recommended hot spots around that area or what type of bait you were using (minnows vs worms?)
Greatly appreciated. Will definitely be posting some pics of our trip while there.

CMuncan, We have been fishing Callander Bay on and off for about 20 years. We will be up there tomorrow at Glen Echo. Wasi Falls is always a good spot. Drifting west down the north side of the main channel produces. We also have had good luck on the flats out on the main lake but there are many rocks. I would not recommend going to the flats unless you really know the area. Blue & white jigs work well for us even though it's not your normal standard color. Good Luck. Kevin

Thanks for the info Kevin. This will be my 3rd time to nip but my dad and brother have gone for the past almost 8 years. I'll definitely try the blue and white jigs. Any luck on worm vs minnow? Here's some pics of 2012 trip

Well we are wrapping up our trip. Had a decent haul and caught limit. Very nice size walleye. Lots of smalls that we had to put back now due to the reg change
We were mostly down at marker J6 just outside of tillicum bay caught big guys in 7-8 FOW

is there a public boat launch in tillicum bay?? or is it private..
Hey score23. I do believe that you can talk to Bud at cosy cove and he is in the next bay over (deep bay). I believe that he might have a small fee for launching from there but I'm sure he'd be ale to help you out.
