I'm going to be in Dwight this weekend and would like to do a little fishing.
Anybody have any info on oxtongue lake?

Thats a great point. I had the opposite happen in the Bahammas once.
Only one Barricuda was boated and of course, I was having a piss when it hit.
The best trip I've had down south was in veradero. We trolled sitting on a
catamaran. We caught a few barricuda and a nice king mackeral. It was nice
not having someone set the hook and just hand you the rod.

What resort are you going to?
I fished at the Bahia Principe trio of resorts. There is a lagoon about a 10 minute walk south. It is not part of the resort property and has no hotel on it. Absolutely gorgeous, not many people venture the walk - over broken coral and scrub, but well worth it.
Caught a few small reef fish - would have liked to get more, but I didn't have the right bait. Need to use either fresh shrimp from the buffet or fresh calamari. The shrimp were great for chum, but didn't stay on the hook long. The calamari stayed on much better - use it.
Saw a ton of fish, lots of small barracuda, hard to hook, pointy, small, hard mouth. Saw a 5 foot shark, puffers, snappers, you name it.
Poster above is correct, no fishing on the beach
I went deep sea fishing with a local charter, picked up at Puerto Adventuras (Turtle Beach). Went out in 8-12 foot rollers - it is windy this time of year. Took graval and was fine. This is not a great time of year for trolling - spring apparently is the time to fish. We got 2 barracuda over a 3 hour trip, not great, but we weren't skunked anyway. Saw a guy walking down the beach with a 60 pound Dorado, one of those would have been nice. Good experience, but would have liked more fish.
There is a website called local (or loco) gringo that has decent info on fishing. I'd definitely go with a local charter, the boats are beat up, but the equipment and captains are top-notch. The big boats are nice and comfortable, but I'd take the atmosphere and experience of a real mexican charter anyday.
Thanks for all the advice guys, Im staying at Grand Palladium Kantenah Resort and Spa.
I will definatly post some pics if I get anything.
our resort has a lagoon running through it. (Man made)

I'd say yes
Singular/Plural lesson:
fish=fish
moose=moose
deer=deer
foot=FOOT

THATS WHY WE DONT PLAY 'FEETSBALL'
-
Why oh why can't we have a Canadian only night on wfn?
Can anyone tell me why there is no plural use of foot on American shows.
For example" that bass was in 3 foot of water"
They all say it and it drives me nuts! Maybe I'm just picky.
I'd love a night with italo, the chronz, Charlie wray, fish n Canada, mercer, all those west coast shows, and what about good old bob!
What do you guys think ?

I got a Letter Three years Later for PST owed on the Boat.
Haven't paid it yet. Was due about three monthes back. But Im sure they will
get me sooner or later. Im sure they money will go straight into MNR stocking programs right?

Its 2 rods East of the Glenora Ferry Crossing Out to Lake Ontario
Good luck man. Let us know how you do.

I have a 4 hp merc 4 stroke on my boat. the boat is a 16.5 foot fiberglass bowrider. I take it on and off quite abit for watersports and its quite light.
I do find it quite noisy when trolling big water as I need the rpms up. I used to have a 6 hp two stroke. I found it stinky, but nice and quiet as I trolled with it at a fairly low rpm. It was a heavy motor so as I said I wanted something lighter. If money wasn't and issue I would like a six horse again, But I think i'll stay put with the one I have for now.
hope this helps

I just have a normal pair of Spy sunglasses that are polarized. Oakleys are great too. Just spend a little more and get polarized lenses then you don't have to have a pair of goofy looking fishing goggles. One pair of glasses for everything.
I wear mine fishing mountain biking running and driving!

Wow really glad I didn't take up the offer to tag along jeff!
You guys probably have to bit all new lures from all the teeth marks!

I order alot from Overtons.com
Is there anyplace near MArkham/Pickering area where I can get one of these tow boards? I don't mind a drive if necessary.
The key is the rope is tied to the board. Then there are 2 handle ropes for them to hold.
I am also looking to find a skiing tow bar in my 16'Springbok. Any suggestions where to look? Google has let me down.
Thanls

Just talked to a charter in St Catharines and he's been on a good school of coho off the niagara river this week, not big fish but tasty eaters and lots of action.Anything floresent red is good small dodgers red, pixie spoons red and such are working. When you get on them doubles and triples are the normal these are coho so when you hit them you get lots, there hitting the spoons in the prop wash aswell.
