www.ontariofishing.net Volume 9, Issue 8 - August 2009 #104 Soft-Jerkbait Tactics for Deep Water Smallmouth Bass By Tim Allard If you haven't tried using soft-plastic jerkbaits for deep-water smallmouth bass, you're missing out on a deadly tactic. It might seem unorthodox to work a bait running a foot below the surface in deep water, but it works. To survive, smallies need to be aware of their environment and for them to skyrocket 20 feet to hit a vulnerable baitfish frequently happens on many lakes – soft-jerkbaits are one way to capitalize on this trend. Score a Touchdown with Football Jigs by Justin Hoffman Jigs are renowned for their fish catching abilities. And if I was to hazard a guess, no other lure garners more water time than these weighted bait systems throughout the course of a season. For those that target brown and green bass, football jigs may be a new wrinkle in this ever-growing genre, but are a lure that can consistently put fish in the boat, and one worthy of placement in every bass anglers box. Deep Down Lake Trout By Tyler Dunn Deep, cold and gin clear water usually represent most lakes that hold healthy populations of lake trout throughout Ontario. During the summer months Lakers drop down in the warming water column. These fish are often very aggressive and concentrated in the most predictable areas in the lake. Lure Patterning by Pete Maina There are big advantages to multiple anglers. After decades of guiding, generally a couple anglers at a time, every day, you'd think I'd like to spend a day or two just fishing alone. And I do, if it's relaxing bobber-watching for a higher density species, but if I'm even halfway serious about muskie-catching, I can't stand fishing alone – simply because it's utterly inefficient. Lure Selection for Dunking Largemouth in the weeds. by J.P. DeRose When trying to trick a Largemouth Bass in vegetation bait selection can be a very important ingredient to a successful day on the water. There are several options available to the weed line angler, however the first and best advice I can give it to slow down.

Just a quick bump up... still a couple of days to get in!!

Left the kids at home and headed up to Jiggy for some R&R and a alone time weekend with Monique!! We saved so much money buying Carling and our tackle at Dollarama we splurged on some great food!! First off our Dollarama Derby Pictures. I caught two bass and Monique caught a small pike. I made a leader out of the wire we bought, but without a swivel, my line got pretty twisted which lead to an early end to the fishing. Ill have to find real leaders at a Dollarama somewhere. Our Tackle Plate First off here's my shining moments on FILM!!! and the epic smallie battle! Here's the pictures for the derby... We got three on and landed all three!! Then of course Monique had to out do me and catch this monster!!! (Shes such a meanie!!) So.. my entries... a total of 25 1/2 inches amd Moniques whopper - 10 1/2 inches. All fish live released!!! That night we went out pickeral fishing in front of the camp, caught two small ones for breakfast the next day and I snapped this shot. I hope my wife doesn't find out about me new girlfriend!! We also managed to drag the boat UP the rapids north of camp, Monique had never been there... We went till we saw another boat.. then returned home. Here's some other pictures from the weekend.. I love going up just the two of us, when we can take our time and prepare an awesome dinner. Night #1 - Crab Legs, Garlic Butter Fried Scallops, Jumbo Shrimp and Cheese and Spinach filled Ravioli in a Tomato Cheese sauce. Night Two was prime rib, stuffed portobella mushrooms (PS.. note to self.. dont wait till 10:30 to eat... uhhg...) and then wings on night three.. lol.. i was in too much of a hurry to take pictures... We did wake up to a VERY large bees nest under the eave of the camp, here's me about to do battle.... As always a great trip, not a lot of wild life this time, most of the ducks have gone early it seems. We did do a bunch of small jobs around camp. till next time!!
