Re: Clyde River

Great info, everyone! Many thanks.

Kind of feels like I'll be on a wild goose chase, but with nothing to lose. If anyone gets out there in the meantime, please let us know how it goes!

Wow! Thanks for the info, everyone!

I'll make sure I give the Clyde a good fish sometime soon (late Aug, Sept) and report back here.

Clyde River

Hi everyone! I recently replied to a post in the fly fishing section regarding trout near Ottawa, but since I'm not too sure how much action that side gets, I thought I'd ask here. Clyde River. Any trout? The MNR site says it's stocked with Browns and Rainbows. Does anyone fish this river? Success? ...

Re: Fly fishing trout near Ottawa

What about Clyde River? I've read bits here and there saying so, and the MNR site says it's stocked with Brown and Rainbows.

Can anyone confirm?

Thanks!

Re: Rideau River Spots

Awesome, thanks! How is the bottom at these spots? I've noticed that there are a lot of spots with a very soft bottom, sometimes making it a little difficult for wading. Lots of Spots for Gar on the Ottawa river: - Shirleys Bay - Dick Bell - Petrie Island - Morris Island Conservation area. Good luck!
