Rod Caster Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 I quite literally try to fish for as many species as possible each year...some years I focus more on some than others, but that's mostly circumstantial. This summer, I'm going after creek/river specks, only because I want to know where they are. North Bay is a great place for fishing diversity...and I plan on mining that for all its worth.

Ron Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 To me it don't matter what species it is, as long as I am CASTING for them, I'm happy. I hate trolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck2fan Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 I used to love bass fishing at only one spot, where they weren't easy to catch LOL Then they outlawed transporting crayfish over land. Haven't went bass fishing more than twice since then. Now I pass the time until perch fishing chasing chrome... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercman Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 I used to fish mainly Bass.Largies, but that didn't allow me to own enough rods and tackle, so i added, walleye, pike, muskie, and smallies to my list.Now i'm ready for everything, almost........

chris.brock Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) I went through a full-out muskie phase that I've since abandoned, I still enjoy targeting them once in awhile, there's nothing like casting/ trolling big baits in G Bay waters in the fall, magical! now, my favorite species to try to figure out is walleye Edited April 10, 2013 by chris.brock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) With all due respect Rich, digging up a picture to prove you caught something hasn't always worked out well for you. Keep stirring the pot and it might backfire on you. Expessing an interest in one species of fish doesn't make you an elitest any more than it makes an expert on the subject. Some people are just more passionate about it than others. I love muskie fishing as much as I love salmon and rainbow fishing. Carp, walleye, bass, pike are fun too but don't offer the same thrill for me. I make time every year for other species but the bulk of my time is spent on LSC and Lake O. Kind of like digging up internet posts from 8 yrs ago that nobody else remembers eh? Dont use the term with all due respect if you have none for me. Sorry I disagree that musky are the supreme ultimate man fish. Guess my focus is a passion on FISHING . Edited April 11, 2013 by Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outllaw Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 one thing to agree on. if yer fishin your not cutting the lawn or driving to a mall. species truly dont matter. from carp/trout to muskies... enjoy it while you can. how many folks wish they did something,then life changes.... just go fish.

ch312 Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 why anyone in ontario would limit themselves to one species with such a wide variety available is beyond me we're extremely lucky to live in a region with so many different water bodies and species of fish. take advantage of it!

Dontcryformejanhrdina Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 I grew up fishing bass (and catching lots of panfish at the same time) but a few years ago I started catching walleye, pike, musky and lakers. Musky is my favourite but I love just fishing for anything. I'm going to try to switch it up a little more this year. It's a huge thrill to catch a new species.

davey buoy Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) I would love to try Musky fishing.But personally over the last 5 years Pike is my Fav. Caught a couple close to 40",but it's to see the strike when it comes from nowhere side ways on the lure. But,bass,rock bass,blue gill,crappie,Lake Trout, catfish,salmon,steelhead,smelt Perch,and whatever I get next,keeps me enjoying the hunt!. I don't think I could just focus on one .JMO.!
