Re: And into the water they went... Opening Day Misfires
Not opening day, but last weekend I had a Fenwick Smallmouth EliteTech/Shimano Calcutta B combo resting in my boat with the tip up while using the HMG. Hooked the ET on the backswing of my cast and pulled the works clear over my head and into the lake. Luckily the line on the ET was hooked to the sp...

Pistol Grip casting rod, anyone use one?
They don't seem quite as popular as they used to be; also manufacturers only have one or two in their rod line up.
Is there a specific application that they are good for? Without having actually used one, they seem as though they'd be good for lighter line and lures...

Re: Shimano Cardiff vs. Abu C3/C4...suggestions
I have an Abu 4601 C3 mounted to a MH Fenwick HMG. I use it for heavier lures and trolling. No complaints with the reel at all. The 460x C3's have the thumb bar, so they are easy to cast. FYI, 4601/5501/6501 are all left hand reels; the C4 doesn't have a 4601 lefty, although it's possible to buy a C...

Re: Trout rivers near Arnprior?
Thanks for the info guys.
Heading to NY sounds like a good trip, but I was looking closer to home to do some evening fishing, know what I mean?
Still good stuff to consider.

I have two Shimano Calcutta 101B's that don't have rods. My plan is to stick'em on Fenwick Elitetech's.

Trout rivers near Arnprior?
G'Day, I'd like to find a river to fish for trout near where I live in Arnprior. I figure finding info on where to start would be easy since I live a street or two over from the Madawaska, but I've checked MNR guides and can't seem to find anything. I see folks fishing the Mississippi west of the 5 ...
