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.

How many boats ya got coming Shawn?

I have the afternoon off, and will get an answer from Matt tonight regarding clinching a spot for this weekends MS Bassin' tournament on the Rideau. Never fished the Rideau for bass :shock: and may want to pre-fish for that instead though I have made the commitment to fish the Ottawa :D Trying to decide what to do :?:

Shawn - where is Masson? I hope to make it out with one of my boys, but have no idea where Masson is. Also - it will be PITCH black by 9 pm. Sun is going down much earlier these days!

Masson-Angers is across the river from Cumberland. The launch is immediately west of where the ferry docks on the QC side. I agree about the time. By 8:30pm it's almost pitch dark. I'll be running in from Rockland, as I suspect others will be doing. That run in the dark even with a good gps is a little nerve wracking, especially with the debris that might be in the River after this rain. Would you consider a 6pm - 8:30 tourney Shawn?

Yes 8:30 finish works.

I'll be launching from Quigley and I'll drive over to Masson to pick up my angler and meet everyone.
Should be a nice day.

I'm expecting about 5 to 6 boats.
