Just spent a couple hours on the Rideau near the Airport, we were mostly fishing for panfish. Caught a lot of fat rockbass, a couple BIG perch 10-13", a small pike and a little bass. All in all not too bad, I noticed the water temp was up to 67 F much warmer than the Ottawa which was 57 F yeste...

Buckham's Bay

I was wondering if anyone else has had much luck up there lately. I've been up there 5 or 6 times so far and have had mixed results. Today we fished mostly for pike and tried jigging for walleye and found we were catching more pike on a jig and worm then spinnerbaits and cranks. I haven't had any lu...

Hey Rex, I'm pretty sure at least you or your partner must have a sport licence in order to have more than 4 fish in the livewell.

Trolling Motor Batteries

Well I just got in from my first real day out with the new boat not counting the day we tested it. We fished Buckham's Bay mostly and caught a couple pike and lost a walleye. After the long day, the trolling motor battery was telling me to recharge. So when I got home, I stuck it on the charger. My ...

Boat Necessities

I have a 17.5' Legend with a 25Hp four stroke on the back. My question is according to law what must I have onboard? Obviously a lifejacket per person, and I also know about whistle, bailer, rope, oar, and flashlight. I heard a marine fire extinguisher and anchor is also legally required. Is this tr...

A tip I heard for keeping the water cool is fill a 2 Liter pop bottle and freeze it over night then just leave it in the water.

Ahh the popper, #2 cause of heart attacks among bass fishermen (behind Buzz-Baits). Ransome and I got into using poppers in recent years due to the power of the Fenwick Chug-N-Bait, which I am very fond of. :oops: And last year Ransome found his "magic" bait in the Rapala Skitter Pop "...

Well 4 out of 5 of my favourite days came last year with Ransome. There was a day on Muskrat when we landed over 40 pike a couple bass and a nice walleye on the last cast, almost entirely out of one spot. Then another day on Muskrat we were getting bass on almost every cast including a 22" smal...

I'd be all for the idea. If it was somehow possible to have a hands on type seminar that would be cool, maybe a one hour discussion, then off for a couple hours fishing to try out the technique or whatever and meet up after or post the results under a specific thread. But with or without the on the ...
