Welcome back Joco!
Ottawa is a bit too far for me but sure sounds like a good time.
Will be targeting bullhead here in a few weeks.

Now that is some prime bait. Whole for Pike or Lakers, or in chunks for cats, or in nice belly strips on a spoon for Greys. Good stuff. Now you just need some bigger ones for canning.

Cheers

It s tricky spot to get to but parking is "free" after 6 or 7; cops check the lot but never bother anyone in the evening (my experience)

Here is the spot I think people are talking about:

Oh cool!!!

I usually park on the island itself and fish, I have never fished on the actual "ottawa city" shore before!!!

I am certainly game to try it there. Just keep posting when you guys go and I will surely make it out. I have my fingers crossed for perhaps Tuesday night.

Anyone fish for catfish from Bates Island? I think its one of the only places so far that I haven't tried!
