19lb of Rideau canal gold

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

19lb of Rideau canal gold

Post by Marko »

Today after work i hit a spot on Rideau canal close to Dows lake.
It was another slow day but I do have a fish to show for my efforts though. One run and one fish landed.

19lb right on. In three outings so far i managed to miss 5-6 runs and land another fish. I hope they snap out of their funk soon.

Nice catch!

I plan to try a few spots in the city this year, this makes me look forward to it that much more.

I`ve seen a few around, its just matter of time before bite turns on.
The fight these guys put up is quite unbelievable. The other week i hooked one and it ran across the river, got into current and started going downstream. It nearly spooled me

You are welcome :).

I will make sure to show the one fisherman in the office here, maybe I will be able to get him out on the lunch hour.

nice big carp
No matter how many fish I land, it's ones that got away I think about most. :']
