Open Seat Friday, July 7th... Lake Trout & Bass

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Open Seat Friday, July 7th... Lake Trout & Bass

Post by JimW »

Fishing on Friday, July 7th.... Open seat in the boat.

I am planning on doing a bit of fishing on Friday morning, either on Big Rideau Lake or Charleston Lake. The plan is to fish for lake trout for a few hours (so I can see how my kicker motor is running and make sure my electric downriggers are working for my salmon fishing trip coming up) and then do a bit of bass fishing to end the day.

Anyone wanting to join me? I have all required fishing gear if needed. Email is best jjwsanderman@gmail.com

I see in your signature that you are the fishing team coach at Athens high school are you a teacher there or do you volunteer for that? Where do the kids fish for that? I am looking to gain some more information if possible.

jshow89,

The answer to your question is both... I teach science at Athens District High School and one of my volunteer extra-curricular activities is I started and run a school fishing team/club.

For more info easiest to send me an email or pm, or come fishing with me and I can answer your questions.

Spot filled, though changed plans to Sunday due to weather forecast.

Best of luck to everyone on the water and be safe.

A big thanks to Shane aka topten14 for joining me on Big Rideau today to try our luck for a few lakers and test out my kicker motor and electric riggers. First time I have fished Big Rideau for lake trout in at least 4 or 5 years. We marked a decent amount of fish and bait, but could only get 1 laker to cooperate and eat what we were offering. Oh well a day in the boat is better than a day on the shore.

Thanks again topten14.



Hopefully if the weather cooperates my next adventure will be this Friday, July 14th fishing salmon on Lake Ontario. Anyone up for a road trip to Toronto, 1 seat available in my boat, I have all gear needed.
