My first bait would be a spinner bait. Either chartreuse and white or a Northam perch pattern. I caught my last two wally's on spinnerbaits and although it doesn't seem to be the most popular bait choice for that species it worked for me. Bass also love hitting spinnerbaits. Another unconventional approach but probably the most fun is topwater. I caught a walleye (yes walleye) on topwater (chug bug blue/orange belly) a few weeks ago. Bass also love topwater so it's easy. Throw any of these baits and who knows what you'll catch? It's a surprise bag every time. If you're going to try crankbaits just match your depth. A ripplin redfin should work good for shallow with almost everything hitting these as well. If you're going deeper the wally diver or Rapala shad raps (like Cliff suggested) should work great. Maybe most importantly, pick what you feel comfortable with. Confidence means everything. Oh yeah .... have fun.

Congratulations Rich. Wow, a brand new addition to the Action Angling team. Isn't that absolutely the greatest feeling in the world. It's the most powerful thing in the world. It's instantaneous and still hasn't left me (my kids aren't teenagers yet I guess) . You'll never be the same bud. Congratulations on the greatest catch of all.

You guys are amazing! What a wally!!! Awesome as usual! Thanks for posting.

Nice report .... lightning rod
.... that's funny . As far as losing the post ...... I've had it happen. Anytime I write a lengthy reply or report, I copy it before I click the "post" button just in case.

Wow.that'd be scarey. Glad to see you all made it back to shore. I guess it's time for an Optima.
-
Nice. Those are gorgeous healthy looking gators. Looks like everyone had fun too.
-
I'd agree with a spinner bait. I've caught three walleyes this year. Couldn't get them to hit on a crankbait??? Two were on a white spinnerbait and one was on a chug bug topwater. Go figure?
-
Pretty fish. One is better than none. Could be worse. You could've been at work. Hmmm, kayak and fish or work .......hmmm..................... tough one LOL.
-
In my area Valens and Mountsberg would both be decent choices. Otherwise you could hit the Grand River. It should be great anywhere south of Brantford. I'd avoid anywhere around Deseronto (BOQ) if I were you.

Congrats first time dad(and mom). I bet that was the most incredible day of your life. It's hard to explain to anyone without kids, but as soon as the baby is born you know what you are here for. The bond is instant and lasting and life will never be the same for you. It's a good thing. Treasure every second of it. It goes fast.

Keep those vids coming. Makes me want to start making my own lures too. I imagine there's some satisfaction that goes along with that. Nice gator too Clive. I'd like to hear more of what you're saying in the videos,although the music was cool. Thanks.

Well I just finished eating that bass and no worms, tasted great fried in a little Rich Crisp
As for where I was fishing well it was near Cayuga. Tons of fish landed but few of respectable size.
Oh and the bait of the day was tubes.
Nice fish. True to your name "BigBassRich". Yes we remember LOL. What were the colour of the tubes that worked best for you Rich.? I'm assuming the water was pretty murky,right?What's your choice of rigging?
-
Like normal .....YOU GUYS ROCK!!! Monster pike man
Always entertaining. Keep'em coming.
-
Wow, that's awesome! Pretty soon she'll be outfishing you. My son seems to get bigger fish than me (perch anyway). Hmmm! I better pay attention to what he's doing LOL. That fish has beautiful markings. Nice one fishergirl!
-
What are you throwing in the inner bay? Mostly tubes, spinners, or live bait?
I cant wait
We were using minnows (which mostly caught perch), caught a pike on a blue/chrome ripplin redfin and bass were caught on perch patterned lipless crankbaits, one was Matzuo which I lost and the other is a cordell super spot in firetiger. We tried throwing a spinner bait, but strangely, no takers. Good luck.
-
I've launched out of Old Cut a few times (if you can call it launching with my twelve foot tinny LOL). It's not fancy there, but it's a relaxed atmosphere, they're decent people and they have good minnows too!
-
WOW! AWESOME! I dream of a day like that. Great action shots! Just curious, what colour Chug Bug was it? I have the blue/orange belly one. Man, what a dream day.
-
Good report. I haven't been to Mountsberg yet this year, but have had decent success there before with pike (on topwater..... yeah baby!).Sounds like you had a fun day. Thanks for sharing.
-
I bought two Northam Fishing spinnerbaits ( I think "perch" and "green bass" patterns) at the Spring Fishing Show and have been saving them for this weekend. They sure are "perdy". Hope they catch some fish.
-
Looks like a great time. I can't decide where to go this Sunday. Long Point? Port Maitland? Port Ryerse?Nanticoke?I think Port Maitland may win.
-
That was awesome. Thanks. I just spent the last hour watching a bunch of your other videos too. Love the kids catching the fish. Especially the muskie!
-
That looks like my dream vacation. Thanks for sharing ALL those pics. I couldn't stop watching. Thanks for the great report on bait choices as well.
-
WOW!! Congrats on the beauty wife and beauty job. Life is good,eh? Nice fish by the way.
-
Beauty fish. What Lake? What bait were you using? Hard to see in the pic. Looks like something red?
camping and fishing?

It's a little farther but Murphy's Point Provincial Park. Great fishing no matter what you're looking for. My kids caught about fourty panfish each in a couple days there.
