Well...you hit the jackpot my friend. There are some very knowledgable Musky men on this site, I'm sure they'll be more than happy to help you. Some fairly popular Musky spots in the area would be the Ottawa River near Wendover, Constance Bay and Arnprior; Rideau River and Lake Madawaska.

I'll leave the rest to the experts...

Fishintom, I'd recomend Marc Thorpe. I believe he's one of Ontario's top muskie guides, especially in the Ottawa area.

Thanks Guys. Hawg, I would just like to get into some action. Do you head out for musky alot? I have heard good things about Mark Thorpe, have not heard about Jeff Cyr... lots of time to plan.

There really isn't that much time left to book, I have most of my summer booked up already.

Have a look at my website, I offer both casting and trolling for trophy muskies between Ottawa and Montreal.

There is a handfull of guides working the area nowdays but very few of us are fulltime muskie only guides.

I'll second Bill Craig. Been out with him a bunch of times and have always had multi fish days, whether we did a half day or full.
