Long weekend trip to perth

[Bondar]

Friday after work Ed(Niagarasteelheader) and myself headed up to Perth for a long weekend camping trip

Eds brother and friends had arrived up there on the thursday night so all and all i think there were 10 of us or so it was a great time lots of fishing , fires, food and one or two pops

 

i didnt get to many pictures , well cause most of the time i just forgot , and none of the fish were really huge but i think in all 3 trips fishing in my boat Ed and I landed 16 pickeral or so , a bunch of bass some catfish and sunfish and a snapping turtle

Ed tried his hand at fly fishing for the first time ever and ended up getting the only pickeral on the fly rod (DAMN YOU) , plus him and i got a bunch of sun fish and bass on it as well

Great report!

 

Just a little information here. Try no to hold a snapper by its tail, you could cause damage from all that weight hanging downwards.

Very Nice. Where abouts in Perth were you fishing ? I've stayed at Maple Crest Motel and Cabins in Rideau Ferry quite a few times - and this may be about 7 miles from Perth along route 1 (I believe). Lots of great bass fishing in the Rideau.
