This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Hi Fish hawkers. This is my first post and I have to start out by saying what a great site you guys have The info and great pics are outstanding. I live on the bay of Quinte but am originally from The Ottawa Valley. I hear you guys may be coming down to The Quinte area this fall for a late season Walleye. You should find it a great year to get lots of fish. I have been lucky to get out in the bay 2-3 times per week. Lots of small walleye 12-13". Give this a few more years and they should be a nice size. The bay I fish is normally not overly clear so I don't have to use planer boards and the depth is only 15-18 feet but I want to get out to the glenora area this fall to get into the big boys. I figure the water will be fairly clear but am unsure of the depths.What is the favorite bait for this and what are the best methods? Planer boards? I'm really pumped for fall so any help would be appreciated. Thanks and keep the great pics and fish stories coming.

Welcome!

As jig head said -- so many here with a good knowledge of and experience on BOQ. I'm sure you'll get some advice. Nice to see you posting...
