Pretty quiet around the lake these days. Hardly a boat to be seen anywhere. The lake level has come up a little bit with the few rainy days in late October and early November. A few inches at the most. All three weather forecasts are calling for the first major snowstorm of the year for Sunday the 9th. Ontario Storm Watch is calling for the most at 15 to 20cm.
You can keep an eye on the snow depth by looking at View #5 on the webcam page. The rings of tape on the pole represent 1 foot each.
The Fall Cottage Life show is November 14-16 at the International Center on Airport Road. There is a $3.00 off discount available using code: LAKELIFE3
We are now on winter burn rules. Fires are permitted 24/7.
Due to scheduling conflicts, the November council meeting will be Tuesday, Nov. 25th.
The Rogers / FOCA special pricing plan for internet service is $60 per month this year. (unless you have a Rogers phone in which case it remains $50 per month) Even at the $60 price it is the best internet service for many of us on the lake. It appears they throttle the 5G connection to 40MBps down, and 10MBps up. That is plenty of bandwidth for any single-family use. I am coming up on the end of my 2nd full season using that service and would grade it an A-. If the service keeps working through power outages in the future I will up their grade to A+.
The dump is on Winter hours. It is open Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday and holiday Mondays from 11AM to 4:30PM.
2026 fishing regulations are not yet posted. If things remain unchanged, lake trout season will open January 1. Bass season should open June 27, 2026 and close November 30. The Limerick chain of lakes has a "slot size" for lake trout that MUST be returned to the lake if caught. It is roughly 16 to 22 inches. It is also a "one line" lake when ice fishing. The Limerick chain of lakes are at the very south end of zone 15.
