Post by **SkeeterJohn** » Wed Aug 25, 2004 9:27 am

Looking to go out on the rideau from kars at about 5:45pm until dark anyone interested.. Space for 1. Probably trolling and casting. I have two rods if you don't mind lefty C3 baitcasters or bring your own.

PM me or leave a reply here. Last time out Sunday afternoon with RJ we managed to rasie a nice 45+" one so with this warm front moving in i'm hoping for good things.

John,

I'd be with you in a second if I weren't going to the hockey game tonight. If it's one thing I love as much as fishing, it's hockey. And seeing as this is possibly the only game I might get to go to for a while, I'm taking advantage of it. Damn CBA!

GO CANADA GO!

Sorry for the off topic.

Yeah.. i suspect the hockey this year may be as illusive as a big 50" muskie.

I'm still comfortable knowing that I have a better chance of catching a 50" muskie than the Leaf's do of winning the Stanley Cup.

Yet again almost a fish in the boat.

I ended up at the mouth of the kempville creek and got an amazing series of hits from a very active fish.. must have easily been in the mid 40" range... I took a surface lure and attacked it 3 times before disappearing... i'm amazed it didn't get hooked and i managed to get a pretty good look at it.

Then a few minutes later another hit.. possibly the same fish but about 20yrds further along... One hit and that was it...

Oh well everytime i got out i get so much closer.. next time has to be a fish in the boat

what time does it get dark there?

It was dark for about 8:15 last night.

Oh i should also thank the guy in the 30ft green and white cruiser who gave me back my jacket. I lost it over the side when taking off after launching and didn't notice it was missing.

Thanks even though you may never read this.. but you never know

I noticed on another thread that you are coming to Canada in October and you will find that it will be dark around 7 or even earlier depending on the date you are here.
Here is a link for sunrise/sunset times.
