Essential Ottawa and Rideau Flies?
Hey Guys and Ladies, I am trying my best to clean up my fly boxes, I love to tie all the interesting looking patterns, the British wets, all the complicated nymphs and the foam and deer bugs for bass and pike. Unfortunately, every year I have probably a hundred flies that get stored (Read: recycled ...

I do hope that showing some activity on this thread gets a swap started. I am currently trying to clean the ineffective patterns out of my fly boxes and would love some flies that work for others. I do understand from reading previous posts that woolly buggers (weighted and not), crystal scuds (purp...

I have either drilled holes for folks or lent the auger on the ice when there is an emergency. The only example I have is when some folks arrived at the locks and the guy with the auger hadn't shown up yet. I would suggest finding a member of FH to meet up with, most guys are looking for a fishin bu...

Parking at Constance Bay
Hey folks,
I was just wondering if there is a place to park out at Constance Bay or Buckhams's Bay? I will be headed out there this weekend and would hate to waste my time driving around looking for access/parking when I could be fishing.
Thanks in advance.

Where is the better fishing?
Thanks

Bass Love the Stealth Bomber.
This is an easy fly to build, customize and cast. Tried to prospect for some top water pike... ended up getting lots of attention from the bass and panfish. White with chartreuse belly and no legs was working today. I added doll eyes instead. I also love a leggy variation tied black and purple. http...

The Alberto Knot is supposed to be very strong and very easy to tie.

I was born in Nova Scotia and Dad fished salmon and sea trout every day in season, every tide. We learned to cast a fly rod at around 8 years old and it is just hard to get away from the fact that you just feel closer to the water when fly fishing, trying to match the hatch or chuck and duck....
