Fish-Hawk.Net

Hey Guys, I'm new to the trout fishing scene, had my first experience about a month ago in Algonquin park and pardon the pun,I got hooked. Looking for some spots around the Ottawa area. Anything within an hour-hour and a half of downtown. Anything helpful would be much appreciated.
Thanx

Thats about the best advice you will get....fishermen take trout hotspots to the grave with them

There was a similar post not very long ago on here. Maybe a week exactly. Use the search option on this site, it comes in handy sometimes.

There should be a sticky at the top of the forum regarding asking for spots before earning street cred (or 50 posts), and getting yourself known.

Within an hour-and-a-half from Ottawa: In Messines Quebec, on Highway 105, there is a small pond you can fish. Open all year. Pay per inch.

I think there is a big difference between 50 posts, and 50 quality posts.

I know this issue has been beat to death a few times now, but Fish-Hawk is supposed to be a fishing community, and a community should welcome new members with open arms, not back handed comments about getting fish at fish stores and trout farms.

Remember, at some point, every person here had less than 50 posts, and I bet a little help along the way before they hit some trivial number of posts which somehow equals respect on here?

My 2 cents.

good luck with that Chris you thought it was a fishing site .....wronggggggggg this is the secret service site no information must be given out just in case you go fish out that lake !!

Your something else Dano.....

Or any fishing location on the net for that matter, not just trout. Jig Head and I learned the hard way a couple times over the years posting on FH after being a bit too kind with a more than a few Hawkers. Jig Head and I thought we were doing a great deed by taking out a couple people out in the ol' McCullock for some catching and had asked nothing in return really except we did make it clear to please, not take anyone back.

This has happened twice to me. Getting to a lake to fish that I've certainly never told anyone about with the exception of a few to see that spot is punched out, and guys poppin' hole to hole catching fish...in a area that Jig Head and I have never seen another angler in our lifetime. I was very upset. It's very simple, some are just too lazy to do the leg work to find there own spots and also have the nerve to go back shown to them, no matter what you asked them. It's no different than guiding someone, and they tag along there GPS to record data. Taking into consideration I knew the fellas and never got a call, never in a million years was I expecting to see someone back there. I was considered ''Selfish'' by some

So to you HLIS, I suggest that you follow the advise of the other people posting here. You won't get any info out of me but I will say that there is an awesome feeling when you find your own hot spot. About 5 years ago I was in your position after catching my first trout..hooked right on scene. It was very hard to find any info on message boards and I know why now.

Welcome to Fish-Hawk by the way

Guinness Dude....again...

This was your 4th post here....
