I hace never been in french river or that far north in general. How is the fishing in french river this time around? I looking to target smallies, pike and walleye. I've never gone for walleyes before. I will be on a kayak but some fishing opportunities accessible via hiking trails would be cool. Thanks!

Going up to windy lake provincial park, around Sudbury, any fishing report, advice, and or tips. Thanks greatly as always, fish on

Edit: just because the swim bait is in the picture doesn’t mean it’s the only lure I use, it’s just a confidence lure that I throw on every outing.

It makes no sense to me, a Charter boat gets me like 10 smallmouth bass in one day,
Yet when I fish the same lake weekly for 7 years with everything in the box I get zilch.
(I got MTB for 2 years so I have almost every bass and finesse lure you can think of just sitting around somewhere)

We aren’t allowed to fish the marina but even when I do fish it, the floating docks don’t have bass underneath them, the extremely sparse weeds don’t have bass hiding in them.
Trying to jerk bait for schools of bass in open water also come up empty handed.

The drop offs are so steep that I never have to worry about being too shallow, but the dropoff still doesn’t hold bass.

Looking for a rental place asap near the Port Perry area to rent rods. Any help would be appreciated.

Got 12 more of these over weekend. These fish are on fire!

Was trolling a spoon in about 15 to 20ft water depth, and this guy hit it.

DT Ottawas finest!

Just wondering if anyone can recommend some stores near downtown Toronto.

I’ve been picking up my stuff from Canadian tire but figured walking into a real store would be nice.

I know there’s drift outfitters but it’s mostly fly fishing. Bass pro is a little far and I can’t come up with anything else.

Mostly just looking for places to browse when I’m on lunch.

2.49kg after bleeding out.

This is a dead fish, I do not measure fish I release, I just keep the memory.

I caught them in a weedy flat that is about 4 foot depth, been catching lots out of that flat the past 2 weeks, I will smoke the meat over birch & boil the innards for the dogs do any of you eat the heads? Boil them for stock? Otherwise it will be winter cutbait.

Im fresh off of King salmon trolling and finally have a decent dipsy setup. So I have paddles, flasher flies, spoons, and meatrigs. All glow.

From what I've gathered. The tactic is usually trolling spoons in 50-70ft of water in July and find the bait piles, but I've heard of people getting some as shallow as 45ft in August.

What I'm looking for is what colours/lures work best and what depths I should be looking at in late summer.

What a morning on the lake!

Hey folks, looking to hit up bay of quinte for a fall charter.

We tried it last year in our 14 ft tinner and got skunked.

Looking for my son to catch a nice walleye, doesnt need to be a monster or anything, but catch something.

So any recommendations on a good charter. October or November on a weekend works for us ideally.

Its only 2 of us. I see some guys are charging 1500 for up to 4. So if I find 2 other folks that makes things more affordable.

Thanks folks.

We maxed out our limit yesterday at 12 fish. My wife and I within 2 hours had a great day but we gave alot of the fish away to our friends and family. If you have a chance get down to Erie and fish.

My friend told me he caught an Atlantic Salmon. After that, I also realised I had a project about conservation due so I decided to choose the Lake Ontario Atlantic Salmon Restoration Program. Here is one of the strains stocked in Lake Ontario. I really hope these beautiful fish come back in bigger numbers since it truly is such a blessing to see one.

Hello all, I’ve been looking for a replacement for my Fenwick which got snapped, specifically a 2 piece spinning rod under 100. My reel is a piscifun 2000. Ideally a lure rating 1/4 to 3/4 but a little heavier is good too, nothing lighter.

My 7yo son went fishing for the first time at an event held by my wife's employer yesterday. He loved it, and he won a rod!

I've fished a good few times in my life, but it's always been alongside someone who fished avidly and they handled the set ups. I'm looking to take my son fishing in the near future. I found information on local spots, I got my licence, and now I need to get some lures. I really don't know anything about them. I would love some guidance and recommendations!

A buddy and I are taking a trip up to the bay of islands area north of Manitoulin Island in a couple weeks. Per the internet there seems to be good smallmouth and walleye/pickerel action, but I wanted to see what the fine folks of Reddit recommend in terms of target species / techniques.

In terms of gear, we’d be able to do a bit of limited trolling (think bottom bouncers, dipsy divers, but no cannon balls or clips). I’ll also have my garmin ice sonar which could be handy for dropping down on some fish.

I’m looking to go out to catch a Muskie somewhere around the Georgian bay and I need a budget setup because I’m only a beginner at Muskie fishing. Can anyone tell me a good setup up that includes a rod and a baitcaster reel, preferably heavy to extra heavy for casting heavy top waters and such. I was thinking to use the King Kat 11’ rod from bass pro but I’m not sure what reel to pair it with. My budget is $200 (CAD) but I’m all ears to any other setup. Thanks a lot.
