  • An Overview K
    An Overview K. Turner and Associates, 1031 Trillium Drive, Bracebridge, Ontario P1L 1X2 705-645-7416 Cell: 705-787-8412 [email protected] In 1980/81 we acquired a small family run fishing camp in the village of Magnetawan on Ahmic Lake. The property had an aging cliental and was in need of repair and upgrading. Recognizing this, we needed to diversify the cliental and extend the season from a June/July season and a little August (closing after Labour Day) to a May to October season. We embarked on a upgrading program and an aggressive marketing campaign. We did not have a lot of cash to develop the property and realized the money to do so had to come from increasing revenue from rentals and providing increased services to guests. In the early years we experimented with a number of ideas and projects. Many of them were very successful and others failed. – part of the learning curve! We did seek advice from as many sources as we could including; Ministry of Tourism, trade associations, fellow operators, and outside consultants. Our first goal, to increase revenue, was very successful. It allowed us to add significant upgrades to the land and buildings at costs we could afford. In addition it allowed us to advertise more effectively. Our cliental began to change and we were able to increase occupancy, particularly in the shoulder seasons. We recognized the market was rapidly changing, particularly after 1994/5 with the growth of the Internet. We made an effort to keep up with the trends and acquired the expertise to do so.

  • Magnetawan River Tributary Report
    Magnetawan River Fish Habitat Assessment Executive Summary The Eastern Georgian Bay Stewardship Council (EGBSC) received funding from Environment and Climate Change Canada to carry out a 32-month project to assess spawning, nursery, rearing, and foraging habitat in eight tributaries to eastern Georgian Bay, including the Magnetawan River. Fish habitat assessments were focused on Walleye, Lake Sturgeon, and Sucker species, between the river mouths and the first major spawning area or barrier to fish passage. The Magnetawan River is a large watershed with a complex system of dams for water level management, governed by the Magnetawan River Water Control Operating Plan. For the downstream portion of the Magnetawan River, flow is mainly controlled by two dams at the Ahmic Lake outlet. A south branch of the Magnetawan River flows into the Naiscoot River, and another portion of the south branch flows back into the main branch of the Magnetawan River at Miner Lake. It has been documented that flow rates can fluctuate dramatically from year to year, and within each year. The fluctuation of water levels has led to concern from Magnetawan First Nation, EGBSC, and Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) staff over the potential impact on Walleye reproductive success and recruitment. EGBSC’s 2016 Magnetawan River habitat assessment built upon other Walleye studies and reports that recommended follow up monitoring of water level and flow fluctuations. In addition, the area and extent of Walleye habitat at Deadman’s Rapids, the first set of rapids upstream from Georgian Bay, had not been documented, which was also a part of this study.

  • North Eastern Ontario Is the Near North
    North Eastern Ontario is the near north. Yes it’s up there, but at a half day drive from Toronto, the near north is easily accessible whether for a weekend escape or a week-long adventure. The area offers modern cities and towns tucked into the raw beauty of our untamed Canadian wilderness. For boaters, it’s North Eastern the best of both worlds – convenience and nature. Whether it’s the hot, sandy beaches, the quiet coves, or the shore side campgrounds, this region offers it all Ontario for a variety of boaters and budgets. MAGNETAWAN RIVER AREA Near Sundridge you can head down Highway 124 to the town of Magnetawan to enjoy excellent fishing, as well as an historical museum and recreation facili- ties. The reconstruction of the historic Magnetawan Lock was completed in 1998 and re-opened the area to boat traffic. There’s a walkway right across to the island in Lake Cecebe and in addition to offering full marina services, the area is part of a 40-mile water- way system leading to Ahmic Lake and the majestic Magnetawan River. Dunchurch is the only town in the area with a direct public access road to the district’s second largest body of water, Whitestone Lake. With its various on-water activities and exciting attractions, you’ll come LAKE NIPISSING back year after year. North Bay is the first big city you’ll come to on your journey up Highway 11. The city is a popular spot for recreational boaters to access Lake Nipissing. 125 R11 Edit_18.indd 125 2017-12-28 12:47 PM There’s an excellent full-service marina and once you’re on the water, visitors will love the fascinating scenery and the area’s excellent fishing.
