I have just been visiting the board for a few days now and with the Waleye run just getting started here in Manitoba (Big green back for those who have heard about them) I will try to keep you folks posted on what is happening around here. I'm going out tonight for the first time in a few weeks so check again tomorrow.

Welcome to the BB, Pike48. You're the second member I've noticed today, from Canada, that is on this BB. As you can see I live in Thunder Bay and fish & hunt all around the area. I primarly fish walleye from here to Rainy Lake. Where's your favorite haunt(s)?

WalleyeWayne, I've just returned from the French river area unbelievable fishing....I normally fish the Kawartha Lakes or Lake Simcoe. One of these days I'm going back to Kenora, Lake of the Woods area. You almost have to hide behind a tree to bait your hook there, the fish are so agressive.
And you? I know the Pike and Pickerel are good up your way

Pike48, the furthest I've fished up your way is Lake Nipigon. I usually head west from here but I would love to fish around Wawa and the Chapeau area.....supposed to be some dynamite fishing there also.

Wayne, Tried Wawa last year, the bugs sent me packing after a few days. I guess the black flies and mosquitos don't find warm blooded mamals without fur very often in those parts. Ill try again in the fall when it's cooler

Good luck then Pike48.....Lippy, nothing gets by you does it? <!--graemlin::D-->. Do you remember J.J. Walker from the old T.V. show? He was always yelling "KID DYYYY-NOOOO-MIIIITE"! Well that's what we do when we hook onto a walleye over 30" <!--graemlin:;)-->. When they're under 30", we just yawn <!--graemlin::cool:-->.

This year was a slow year for fishing walleye for us....didn't get out enough and thus more "yawners" than "wallbusters". I had a layer of frost on my windshield this morning so it's a good time to go walleye fishing now....colder water means hungrier walleyes!

Good day,

Fellow Canuck here. Located in west central Alberta. Love to walleye fish, in fact heading out shortly to Pigeon Lake. Awesome walleye lake here.

Hit the wife's family cabin this past August for 3 weeks on Kawaweogama Lake, east of Savant Lake. Fly in lake. Fishing for the 'eyes was excellent.

Take care and good luck fishing!

Looks like we got ourselves some action on this Canada site. Given the vast quantities (and qualities) of our Canadian lakes it always leaves me wondering why the NAFC mag mainly stays south of the border. To fish on a lake and sometimes see one other boat, or no one else is truly a Canadian thing. Of course access and travel time limits most people.
We seem to have our own preferences for lures and baits. (Lucky Strike, Williams etc.) And fishing guru's (Bob Izumi).
Anyway, I am still trying new lakes in the near north district of Ontario, next stop Timmins. The French river was amazing (Woseley bay), The pike gave my equipment a workout.
Keep posting great fishing locations and remember to "keep your stick on the ice"

Heh, Pike48, Timmins in the north district of Ontario <!--graemlin::confused:-->? Gimme a break man <!--graemlin::rolleyes:-->. When you get closer this way to Lake Nipigon you can start using that word "north" <!--graemlin::p-->. Until then we consider you guys "Southern Ontarians" <!--graemlin::D--> <!--graemlin::D-->.

Walley Wayne,
If I gotta drive west for 20 hours until I'm back on the Canada US border it ain't north. <!--graemlin::eek:--> Out in Fort William / Port Arthur watch'n hockey and drinkin beer is a winter past time. (you must be into the beer already). If Shania says she's from northern Ontario who am I to argue <!--graemlin:;)--> But seriously, Pickle lake to Kapuskasing is what I consider north. I'll get out to your neck of the woods soon, I have to try Kenora, Lake of the woods. Big pike / walleye I hear.
