Normally I'm on the ice until I feel it's no longer safe. This year I'm planning to stop around mid march once the lake ontario/st. lawrence tributaries become reasonably fishable.

Do any shops carry them here in Ottawa?

don't waste your money
Northland make great products for the most part, but those things are junk IMHO

I'll be there one day this weekend.
If you see a red Quickfish3 pop-up come say hi.

Great fish!
Great writing style too

great looking toothy

I've had a local tell me that they are in muskrat, but though the lake is suitable for them I've never seen one come out.

Anyone carry these spoons locally?
Thanks.

beautiful fish! congratulations

I find the crappie bite dwindles after dark at both places.

Either the water is public and there should be a point of access (not necessarily a concrete boat launch with all the bells and whistles) that anyone can use...or the water is private and only the owners have access to it.
Can't be both.
