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.

Almontefisher, Sorry I didn't make that clear on the website. I have updated it to indicate more clearly what the price includes.

The fishing has been great early this fall season and the past few weeks walleye heading to Quinte have been nice trophies - I am sure it is only going to get better. :wink:

Here I am with a couple of walleye pulled in over the past few weeks.

Contact Scott for one of the last spots...

That blue algae bloom taking place in the bay right now might put a bit of a damper on the fall walleye fishing.

I was seriously thinking of attending this ... but after reading about how toxic the algae is ... I will wait for ice fishing I think... and maybe attend the next offering of this.

Seaweed, don't be put off by the algea bloom, check this out.
Especially if you are a catch and release fisher.

Walleyes have two main modes of operation in fall-feeding and resting. In many systems, feeding occurs largely during low-light periods. Think sunrise, sunset and at night. However, heavy cloud cover and windy conditions can trigger bursts of daytime activity, as can a late-season algae bloom. Bright skies and relative calm during the daylight hours brings lethargy. Walleyes move little and feed only when an opportunity arises that's too good to pass up.

blue green algae is found in the shallow(er) waters where wind has blown it and allowed it to collect.

where you would "potentially" be fishing/learning, which would most likely be adolphustown reach and long reach, i dont believe you'd see a single inch of blue green algea.

"maybe" in the furthest in sections of mallory bay, perch bay, and picton bay, but thats where you'd find me, bass fishing....not walleye fishing.

don't pass up this opportunity because of blue green algae. again, chances are you would not see a single inch of it.

the reason for the bass guys cancelling their tourney, well, as i said, its in the thick shallow area...where bass guys fish. :D

I watched probably at least a dozen boats fishing bass on the north shore of the bay where this "poison algae" was getting blown in by the south wind this past weekend. Obviously the bass' prey were feeding on this algae. These boats were fishing, and stacked tighter than at blastoff, so it didn't appear that the algae had any effect on the fishing!! - maybe made it better?

Just keep your dogs out of the water I guess...

We will be fishing no where near the warning area. It seems to only effect the shallow areas of the Bay with the highest concentrations toward Trenton. All of the press releases I have seen are warnings from Carrying Place to the Bridge in Deseronto.

All of our fishing will be done 15 to 25 feet below the surface in very deep water from Sherman's Point out to the Gap in Adolphus Reach.
