Otonabee River - To Be or Not To Be ? This is the question

[BIG-A-]

three of us decided to hit the Otonabee River today and if one thing didn't lead to another

First we find the launch that one had mentioned to us and not too impressed with the condition of it. . . but was willing to launch....then, someon ended up twisting their ankel and was in a lot of pain. . . what to do, what tod o , then the other forgot his life jacket , so now we had to find the nearest Wal-Mart to buy a life jacket some some ice heat cream and a tensor bandage

So now at this point I decided upon myself that we look for the closest marina to launch form for my piece of mind . . . .Well we ended up lauching in Little Lake and guess what . . . . after 1 hour of casting, then 1/2hr of trolling we discovered that there was no access to the lower part of the river, so we headed back to the lake and did some more casting and more casting and more trolling and then decided to try and hit the upper part of the river . . . well guess what again..... NO ACCESS again !!!!! Now I'm just upset and wish I had stayed home

Well all in all it was still great to be out with good friends and got to practice my top water jerk baits

Note to self : stick to original plans, especially if not familiar with the area

Right in my stomping grounds!

It's a great area with some good fishing to be had, but because of its size its tough to spend more then a half day there without running out of water to fish.

Here's some action from an outing earlier this year:

I'd love to start seeing more posts from this part of the world, it might get me a little more involved, I've been a little lazy making posts recently.

Too bad you didn't get into much action.

Next time.
