People give there Bass and walleye spots away,well you are asking for alot..but I say your best bet is go to your local Mnr office 1st is ask for the $10 local map..this map will show almost all lakes in the area and tells you what kind of fish are in them..then ask them for some stocking reports which are free..and maybe talk to a person in the office...also ask the local bait shop guy always has valuble info that they rarely get to use..since they are always watching the shop for sales..they fish little but hear alot..hope this helps if I lived in they area I would give you a Bass spot but the walleye ummm,tough one!!Walleye are such a sought after species and tough to find good spots nowadays..to get um like this more then often is usually a well kept secrect..Gl and fish on..

Lake Eugenia has Bass. The weedpatch south of the bridge(you can stand on the embankment and fish from shore) that crosses the 8th concession has some nice Largemouths. If you have a boat and the weedpatch is full of other boats I have always had success fishing around the island (fish the edge of the weeds).

 

The other lake close to Owen Sound is Bells Lake outside of Markdale. You will need a boat/canoe for this lake as it cannot be fished succesfully from shore. You can launch from the 12th concession. I have caught Bass in this lake and because of the nature of the shoreline the only people fishing this body of water have boats,it doesn't see a whole lot of preasure.

A friend of mine had a cottage at Barrow Bay and we used to do a lot of bass fishing in Sky Lake and Issac Lake. Mostly Largemouth Bass and some pike. Berford Lake is supposed to have some good Smallmouth Bass fishing. These spots are all just North of Wiarton. Not sure about Pickerel in the area?? Boat Lake might be worth a try as well.  If you are into Lake Trout fishing..Gillies Lake is worth a try as well. Its been quite a while since I have been there, and I'm not sure if there is public access there  anymore??  Good Luck!

..Rick

Eugenia Lake for sure for Largemouth, can be a nightmare launching/taking out on Weedends, great through the week. Locals also stock rainbow and brookies. Lake Charles(between Wiarton and Kemble-just north ofWollsley) has a great picnic area and holds big smallies and perch. Good  launch,(I'm fishin' a Princecraft 177 Super Pro)definately need a boat.  Walleyes are found in decent numbers in Chesley and Gould Lakes, also hold good bass and pike. Many great spots for bass in Grey and Bruce counties, Saugeen river around Ayton,Hanover,Walkerton, pretty much need a "car topper" to launch and fish the river. Hope this helps you a bit. Good Luck:cool:
