That sounds very fun!!!

I like the monthly email. it allows me to take a break from work and look at reports and see whats going on. Cheers!

I just saw it looks like some bad weather may be coming all over ontario this weekend. Good luck at your go to spot! Cheers!

I live in Oakville and grew up fishing 16 mile, bronte, credit rivers. That is how I learned how to catch bass! Cheers!

great stuff!!! memories that will last a lifetime!

I have some commitments down here this weekend and the long weekend we are entertaining some non fishing people. I may be able to get out before they come up but not sure yet. I am off for a week during Canada day so I do plan on fishing a lot in the magnetwan area and I am heading to the inlaws for a few days up in marten river/Temagami so that will really be my opener. Where are you guys fishing the bass opener. All signs are pointing for the bite to be on! Cheers!

My son and I hit the road Friday morning for the a few days of fun and fishing. Things to note. The water temperature is higher then it was all last year. 74 in some areas I would say an average of 72 throughout the whole lake. Weed growth is starting to come in which is nice finally. We had a lot of fun swimming, fishing and hanging out by the campfire and the screened in porch. The fishing was much better then last week. The Pike were hitting although we didn't get anything to big. We managed a couple small walleyes and lost the only good picture worthy one at the boat. The OOS bass were biting pretty well anything in the water so that should be a good thing for opening weekend. Haven't seen a crappie yet this year which is disappointing cause they are delicious. I don't know if it has something to do with the late start but usually the first week of June we are smashing them. Here are some of the highlights from the weekend. It was a great time and we can't wait for the long weekend to hammer some bass and hit some northern lakes for some monster bass! Campfire! A few of these post fishing Some of these of these for night caps (maybe the best whiskey I have ever had made in Sundridge). Double shot with ginger ale in a mug is my favourite summer time drink The view Father and Son! Jumping off the rock! We got a few of these guys but not much bigger. The drive home knocked out with the pup on his chest is priceless! Overall it was a great weekend with my son and I can't wait for a week up north starting next Thursday! Cheers!

WOW those are some amazing fish thanks for posting! Cheers!

Great report looks like a lot of fun. That is a really big laker!!! Cheers!

Sounds like it was a cold experience but man some of those fish were amazing! Thanks for posting Cheers!

Hey thanks. We aren't to far from you we are in Magnetawan so about half hour north or so. I did talk to some locals I know well that I helped out so they are always willing to give me advice. they said the same thing it completely shut down. Not even OOS bass were hitting which is strange for our lake as they are everywhere. The walleye bite here is pretty tough. there are monsters in here but they are very tough to find. I just need to get into some walleye/pike to hold me over till bass opens. I did see a lot of bass fry in the shallows last week around shore and docks so that is a good sign. Im on my way up to the lake Saturday to Tuesday so here is hoping we will get into a few. Cheers!

Yeah I talked to the local bait shop. They saw similar things and others were saying the same thing I was. I will be back out there Saturday trying to figure it out

We did fish some smaller rivers but nothing. What someone just told me at sail is that the huge caterpillar outbreak could be a factor. We did see areas with hundreds of them in the water along shorelines. Again or maybe we just suck haha cheer!

Those are some great fish and what an amazing fish dinner you got there. Looks yummy. Cheers!

I need on guide on my lake to show me how to catch walleye. Its like winning the lottery getting not the big ones. ' Cheers!

Spent some time on the water the last few days. Water was great but fishing was slow or maybe we just suck. We fished with minnows, leaches, worms, crank baits, , swim baits, drop shotted, casted, trolled, jigged and all but threw a trap net in the water and couldn't really put anything worthy in the boat. Often going hours without a bite. The biggest issue was the lack of weed growth. With the ice going out a couple weeks late it has really pushed back weed growth and possible the spring bite. We did manage to get some smaller fish but nothing really picture worthy. It still was a great time on the lakes and the weather was amazing! The heat has really kept the black flies at bay. There were hardly any. Last year was bug suits for weeks. The bad news is the mosqitoes were out in full force in the early morning and late evening. I have the bite marks and the itch to prove it. 6am sunrise. Was on the water at 5am first fish was in the boat at 515am and was thinking alright this is going to be a great morning. Just a couple very small walleye and pike before 7 then nothing the rest of the morning. Great sunrise pic tho. A fishing buddy and I trailered up a couple hours north to Temagani area to a lake that has always been good for me. it was dead. Not even the perch were biting. We headed over to another lake and lifted the motor and paddled through a small channel to a lake we heard about that was very remote and filled with fish. Well we made it but again no fish. The fish were just turned off. Not sure why it was 3 or 4 days of solid weather and there was a decent light chop but still no fish Again maybe we just suck haha. I was happy we did it though as there is something so cool about being on a back woods lake with nobody on it but yourself. Our last morning we did manage to get a few pike but nothing of any size. Here is a buddy with one. I will end the post with one of the most amazing sunsets I have seen in a long time. I really wish I had a better camera with me but it was really amazing. Got to love spring evenings on the lake. I am doing a fathers day weekend with my son so I hope to get some better fish and fish pics! Come on Weekend! Cheers!

terrible news. I often wonder how two people drown but I guess when your drinking anything can happen. Stay safe everyone

great pics!! looks like it was fun cheers

holy that is one amazing trip. Those are some great fish! cheers

great fish and great pic!!!] cheers

If the water is high and cold still that could mean the bass haven't spawned yet so that may explain the lack of bite. I have family up that way in kirkland lake and the ice didnt melt until the long weekend. The latest they have seen it go out.

that is amazing

some serious chrome! good job! Cheers!

great pics!

I’ve always had amazing fishing on nipissing myself. My biggest large mouth and my biggest walleye have both come from nipissing. What would you recommend to this fellow?? Cheers!
