Ahmic Lake
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ahmic Lake is part of the historic Magnetawan River waterway in Parry Sound District, Ontario. It is well marked for navigation. There are many spots where the rock shoals extend into the lake then plunge to depths of 60 and 90 feet, ideal fishing for walleye or pike. Much of the rest of the lake has steep shorelines with overhanging dead woods as well as rocky outcropping, ideal for bass in close and walleye out a little further. Bass are prolific here and offer great sport.
Ahmic Lake is approximately 12 miles long and connects to two smaller lakes, Nehick (nicknamed Beaver Lake) and Otter lake. At the turn of the last century, a number of popular fishing camps where built on Ahmic, including Cedar Croft, which stayed in business until the late 50's. Much of the land around Ahmic was purchased around the same time, and has been kept intact over the years, making Ahmic a beautiful lake with with a pristine shoreline with only moderate development.
