The Bay of Quinte and Greater Napanee areas are well known for sport fishing. Visitors can enjoy fishing in and exploring the Napanee River, Hay Bay, Mohawk Bay, Adolphus Reach, Bay of Quinte and Lake Ontario.
Common catches are walleye, pike, perch and bass.
Come and enjoy a quiet evening of fishing or for the more energetic an early morning sunrise on the waters of Loyalist country. After exploring the beaches and fishing areas, come ashore at public docking facilities at Napanee, Hay Bay and Deseronto. Each year in May, thousands of people enter the Walleye Fishing Tournaments for their excellent prizes and friendly competition. Boat rentals are available through local outfitters and all our Bed and Breakfasts have easy access to water. Ice fishing is also popular, but call ahead for information on ice conditions.
