Yes there are some day lakes...costs about $80 for a day pass (wife bought it for me as a gift), and because they only put one angler or group per lake calling in advance is a good idea.

I grew up seeing a fly rod in my dads closet but can barely remember seeing him cast it ... then on one of my trips back home my buddy had his fly rod out and after watching him land a few (and me catching nothing), I came back to Ottawa and bought the whole setup ... I tried it once and absolutely loved it ... really nice way to fish ... nice way to catch bass ... I plan to try and hit some serious rainbow and brookie spots ...

Sure doesn't look like you need any lessons though ... looks like you had a really good experience ... thats great.
