RJnBirdees Panfish/Vexilar Demo Day on Lower Rideau...

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.

RJnBirdees Panfish/Vexilar Demo Day on Lower Rideau...

Post by RJ »

Ever wanted to give one of those fancy Vexilar flashers a try before you make the plunge and buy one?

Want a shot at over a hundred bucks an hour in prizes for longest Panfish caught?

Enjoy attending events where every dime of proceeds goes to a great cause?

Then this is your day to knock off all those with one shot!!

It coincides with the Family Free Fishing weekend so no licenses are required... :wink:

Hope to see a bunch of you out!

RJ

I am trying to rally some people from work and friends to come out for this event.
I am new to fishing in the area so just so I can give folks clear directions - is it Rideau Ferry?
thanks

Google map " Conservation area Rideau Ferry" and that is where you get onto the ice. Then follow the ice road heading left.
When hell freezes over, I'll be there icefishing!!!

If you can't stand behind our troops,
Please feel free to stand in front of them!!!

I went last year but I wasn't driving and I didn't really pay attention to the roads we took. RJ gave me the above directions.

Thanks for chiming in Dan. That's the spot.

We will have an HT Double Hub setup for registration.

I'll have the new Vexilar FLX-28 on hand as well as a FL20 for people to give a try. Also the new K-Drill will be on hand to check out.

Good Point Grant! Mossy's Smoke Shop is planning (weather dependant) to be on hand running the BBQ again. His sausages are worth the drive alone. :lol:

We will be setup with a double hub shack over in front of Stonehouse Island, so yes over on that flat. Crappies usually show up in the evening but we have had some caught during past events.

Yup that's it. Drive out the RVCA boat ramp and look left. You'll see the village.
