Fall Colors

Lake Francis is the best kept secret in the Bruce Peninsula. The air is clean, the water is fresh, the loons are calling and The Bass are waiting to be caught.

It will become a ghost town until next year.  Guests at Lake Francis Cottages take advantage of any season because of its location.

Victoria Day Sauble Beach

Well Victoria Day was cold but was lots of fun anyway. The waves off Lake Huron (Sauble Beach) were quite high. Sauble Beach Cottages  (Sauble Beach Rentals) and Sauble Beach Campsites had the young and old holding blankets and wearing heavy coats to keep warm.  Here at Lake Francis Cottages the guests were able to snuggle up and watch a movie in their cozy nest. The wind died down on Sunday night so they enjoyed sitting by a  fire. The air was crisp and the stars were absolutely incredible. No one was brave enough to  jump  in the clear cold water but did enjoy a canoe ride early Monday morning.  All of you who came out to enjoy the Victoria Day Long Weekend don’t forget Canada Day in Sauble Beach is just around the corner.

Sydenham Sportsmen’s Association Release Rainbow Trout Into The Sydenham River, South Bruce Peninsula

Rainbow Trout-Georgian Bay

Rainbow Trout-Georgian Bay

A 12 year old boy from Owen Sound helped the Sydenham Sportsmen Association  pour buckets of yearling Rainbow Trout into a tank to be transported to the Sydenham River and released.  Over 14,000 Rainbow Trout,  were grown in a fish hatchery. This is an ongoing hatchery program to stock our waters.  The club will also release more than 170,000 Chinook Salmon into the river in June. Ray and some friends every year rent a Charter with Action Fishing Adventure’s (Captain Tony), they go out on Georgian Bay and are able to fish and generally catch the legal limit while barbecueing and having some laughs. The Salmon Derby that is held in September every year  in Owen Sound brings many fishermen and ladies to the area to try their luck at winning the Grand Prize, a boat fully equipt with all the gear needed for the  next year. Here on Lake Francis we have Large and Small Mouth Bass and also Pike. This  is one of the very few lakes that has such Great Bass Fishing. In the spring we are very careful  not to  disturb the Bass beds. In return it allow us and others on the lake to enjoy this sport. Many property owners on Lake Francis as well as visitors catch and release. With educating the young and old with the environment it will keep are waters on Georgian Bay and Lake Francis clean and fresh for this type of entertainment.
