What are the plans for opener?

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.

I have a special intra-net furnished by Google that is for farmers only (And the Chinese government...) it serves up special maps and web sites that the general public can NEVER see!

:) :)

To be honest... I call them "X" 'cause I want to be cool like BA and 24/7!!!!! (Never quite make it...)

But Secret Farmer Lakes are just that; Secret!!!!!

Haven't made my mind up for bass opener.

For a very long time the opener of bass has always been a toss up between Charleston or the Big Rideau, but now there is a new player in town, the Rideau River.

I was also considering going to someplace new to me for bass opener. Dog/Cranberry would be at the top of that list. I wanted to fish Dog/Cranberry last year but never made it.

Of course I'm still waiting for launching information and hopefully a few general areas about Dog/Cranberry that was promised to me last year from a prestegious and prominent pro on the Renegade Bass Tour Series.

For the second year in a row I'll be heading stateside to Brooklyn, NY for the Jamaica Bay Kayak Fishing Tourney for Charity. Last year we had 260 entrants, this year they're anticipating 350. Huge event with alot of fish caught... I'll likely be hitting the 'eyes on the Ottawa the following weekend though :wink:

I will most-likely kick the season off with an April trip to fish the western basin of Lake Erie and spend some time on the Detroit River. The early run of walleye is amazing in those waters.

Opener

Post by Joey Rat »

I have the boat if someone wants to get out for trout or crappie, other then that we will do the May 1&2 opener on the BOQ.

My wife is in Barrie for the second week of May. I haven't checked the local regs but may tag along for some spring pannies on Simcoe while she works. I'll be in Florida and will miss the local opener for 'eyes but it's back to the BOQ on the 29th.

For bass opener I'm booked into my favourite campsite at Murphy's Point and will hit the Big Rideau and area for 5 straight days. My favourite site is the one that has room for the boat and a bug tent.

well i'll still be ice fishing for walleye for another couple weeks, THEN i'll start getting exited for the opener up north to Elk Lake. Great fishing with a secluded camp with boat only access.
