Heading to Rouge River...

[rbaquial]

Hey Folks,

 

Heading down to the Rouge River (probably the mouth 1st... then duffins afterwards)...was just curious if anyone has tried to fish there with any luck?

 

Thanks!

I've fished the part right near Lake-O in the rouge-hill area many times. I've only caught bullheads, but theres always plenty of people carp fishing there and the last few times there I've seen a lot of fairly big ones being pulled out. Apparently theres pike in there and I remember a small one being pulled from there many years ago. Good luck.

I fished the Mouth of the Rouge a few times about 7 years back. Didn't have too much luck. I remember there being plenty of Carp and tiny Catfish. A few bass in there too but they were few and far between. Some old guy said there were some pike in there too. I remember not being able to walk up the river, fishing spots were kind of limited.

Have fished the Rouge at this time of year just above the 401 and caught lots of smallmouth bass and some perch on small spinners. Actually did this a few times years ago, but probably still fish in deeper pools around bends. Same thing at Duffins around Hwy 2. Good Luck!
