Petrie Island

Thinking of heading down to Petrie after work and dropping the sportspal in for a little fishing.

I was thinking of fishing the channel that runs to the south of the island and then maybe meandering into the smaller channels that that branch off of it. Am I wasting my time fishing around there? I've only ever fished from shore and around the culverts on Petrie. I prefer bass and walleye but am happy to be catching fish period.

Also heard that the weed bed south of the beaches is a good starting point. Not asking for your spots, just a little direction.

Cheers,

@ Jimmy - those fish are friggin' ugly. But if I do get one, I'll take a pic, just for you. I think that is one of the few species native to Ontario that I haven't caught yet. That and an eel. I think I could go without both lol.
