I haven't been to Simcoe in probably 5 or 6 years, but I will second it. It is well worth the drive. You can either choose to fish Cooks Bay for quick limits and smaller fish or the main lake for jumbo's. From the times I've been up there, Cooks Bay has always been fast action, but you have to sort. If you wait long enough for good ice, there is no need to take quads or sleds, just drive your truck wherever you want...they even plow roads on the ice.
