Recommended Posts

very good friend from Nova scotia is down for a few weeks on bussness,in the toronto area, he made the trip down do do a little Gar,Carp or crappie fishing,the weather was no good for Gar, but great for Crappie.I arrived at RJs place a 7 hooked RJ's boat to my truck and headsed for our favorite crappie lake. Again this weekend we were looking for deep weeds(10 to 15 feet)we had not takers at all where we found them the weekend before,so we went into search mode.Mark was picking off Bass left and right in the deep weeds,the biggest was 5.8 pounds,caught on a ultra light set up with 4 pound test line :o ,a quik picture and it was released back into the deep

Markus 5.8 pounds

Hi Panfisher, we are fishing in the Rideau system in Canada

Newboro,Indian,Clear,Benson,Mosquito, please tell me I'm thinking the right area. I fish there every year but have never seen SLABS like that!

Hey Steve,

I seem to recall from two years ago that we were hitting some great big slabs on Senkos fishing the reefs for bass...I bet time of the year has a lot to do with it. Nice fish, guys!!
