The weather forecast was horrible, but we couldn't miss a long week end on the water. You know how it goes...

It started saturday on the river, trying to get the attention from anything that would bite. Apparently, only these little guys couldn't resist a juicy worm... Bring on the Idol!





Lucky4 did manage to start a fight with a cat. Althought it was eavier on the rod than the mighty rock bass, it still was a bit small for his taste...



We had to think big. So we took out the nice clinky lures and started to troll for musky. Well, they didn't show up either. But a little pike came by just before sunset. A shy fight to close the deal. But a happy thought for my favorite lure.



It was cold but the sunset was to die for!







Tomorrow is a new day, so we're back sunday morning, our bellies full of a hearthy breakfast... The weather seems even worst, but who could resist a loooooooooong day of trolling the Ottawa river!?!

This ambitious little guy came in first. I was quite impress with the audacity, but he went back to grow. Let's find his grand'ma...

(It's not my favorite lure, but you see it can produce some good catch!!)



Then, musky fever hit. And I caught my third of the season. Gotta love the color on the little ones!



And then on monday, a very quiet monday, a very wet and cold monday, only one pike to brighten the day... and de-skunked the boat. He took a hook on the back (as well as the one he bit) but went back kicking and fighting.



Fall hit hard this week-end, but I'm stil thankfull for all we got!

Great Report. guys. As always.

I am glad to see that there are still fish swimming around there. Not like other places I went this weekend and got skunked. But hey, It's just about getting out on the watter, no?

Cheers ya'll

nice colours on that "small" muskie eh?
Nice fish!!!
Are you surree you and lucky4 arent guides

Yeah, that's definitely one of the most colorful musky I've ever seen.

Kevin, if you are reading this post, did you notice I got skunked two days in a row last week-end?...

Sorry Youg_FlyFisher3, there are really no guide in my boat (just a fanatic fisherwoman and fisherman).

Nice fish for your weekends effort.

Fantastic read and pictures....blah, blah, blah.....!

Seriously......you guys know how I feel about you!

Now: do you ice fish? 'Cause I'm going to miss your reports if you don't!

Great fishing and report -- "AS ALWAYS"! Beautiful pics. That sunset is amazing.

PS: as YFF said, I'd like to get a "little muskie" like that!

Another fine report guys

Great job guys!!! You always seem to get into some decent fish. WTG

Promise Wolfe, I'm gonna be here this winter!!... with posts about our stupid hand auger, frost bite, hot chocolate thermos, the tiny tiny tiny perchs, ... We do ice fish, but we're not brilliant at it. Far from it. Still looking for interesting locations, interesting species - I want a paaaaaan fish! - productive techniques, new baits. I'll be here, in FishHawk, to learn!

But we found the fun part at least!! Never had a boring day on the ice!!









Thanks, as always!

OK, now I know you're HUMANS after all, not some superior race of aliens that excel at catching fish (& eating earthworms).

I tried my hand at icefishing for the first time last year -- I stink! But we'll give it a go again this year.

See ya later, fishmasters.
