Simply bring along a fishing rod and tackle, make a quick stop at the corner store for some bait and cast off from the dock, leaving the rest to mother nature. Die-hard fisher folk will want to check out any one of the numerous outfitters in Muskoka, each ready and willing to provide a guide or escort to take you to some of north country’s best fishing spots.
