Hey, If you can get a copy of Canadian Fly fisher magazine from July 2007. They did a feature on it. also try the following link. I believe she has an old article from the magazine on her blog. http://flyaddicts.com/flygal/ From what I remember out Belleville way is good.

laszlo Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 I've seen them spawning as late as the last week of June. Prime months are July and August when the sun is high and the temps are HOT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landry Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 you will be disappointed on their strength. They jump and move quick but they have very little weight/pull. I bored of it in no time and went back to a real flyfishing challenge - carp:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone_fishin Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 you will be disappointed on their strength. They jump and move quick but they have very little weight/pull. I bored of it in no time and went back to a real flyfishing challenge - carp:) agreed! no strength at all. cool looking fish, and a challenge to catch, but no fight. as soon as you get their nose out of the water they are done!

Afraz Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Tonnes of Gar pike at the first lock in Trenton, i tried throing everything their way to entice a bite. but nothing ever worked a buddy of mine suggested i use live frogs maybe you can use frog imitations on a fly and work em slow.

OhioFisherman Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 I have never tried fly fishing for them, but I have caught a number of them on spinning and casting tackle. Like mentioned for their size they are a disappointment. A better fight from a sheephead or walleye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
