Shore fishing Wab?
After going to Coal a couple times and fishing the pike there from shore, I wanted to give Wab a shot. That lake is so shallow in spots though, I don't know where to head down. I was going to try over by the Sundance plant but where I got access in the winter is now all gated off

Are you talking in town? Park on the road and just hoof it through the little field there?

No if you take the kapasawin turn off and go a couple miles down there is a trail off to the right that you can drive down.

when you get into the town of wab take a right when you get to the stop sign infront of the main dock.... drive down adjacent to the train tracks until you see a fence that says "no tresspassing" either park infront or off the beaten path [i have never, ever once been bothered here and many people fish here often] walk around the fence and you will be on a narrow strip of land between a bay [i believe moonlight bay? or something along those lines] and a canal.Fish the canal and Use a big huge beach ball bobber, and suspend a smelt about a foot off the bottom [its 15-20ft deep depending where you cast]. when your bobber begins to shake and dip, open your bail. Your bobber will begin to "swim away" after a count of maybe 3 [1 one thousand...2..] slap the bail shut and give it a yank.
be prepared, bring extra line.. easy to get spooled w/o a boat to chase em with.
guarentee you will be into 12lb+ pike no problem.
ps. USE LEADERS
