taper Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 I can't personally verify this but was told a group of Americans were on the main channel of the French river a week ago and not having much luck. The water level is still very high and fishing has been tough. They landed very few fish during their stay but did manage a 52 lb. musky. There are pictures of it and if I can get my hands on them I will post them. Just thought some here that frequent the area may be interested.

[email protected] Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 It has been tough, the water is still pretty high and had to scrape snow off the windshield of the boat! Our group, first timers, were pretty successful last week with "football size bass" a bunch of Pike and a BIG one that they missed. They couldn't find the Walleye though. I should mention that we, they were fishing the Upper French river near Lake Nipissing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Catching bass on the beds isn't very hard Hopefully they realized that bass season wasn't open yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[email protected] Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Oh! I'm sure catching all those bass was an accident, just like the 48" Muskie that was brought in for a photo opp. Todd (my husband) grabbed that fish so fast that it made everyone's head spin.

Marty Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Dawn, welcome to OFC! I can assure everyone that Todd and Dawn have more respect for that fishery than anyone. The campers are well advised about the regs and they are enforced strictly there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
