Ottawa certainly is a very fishy place.

HOLEY COW
Hard work paid off!!! Live minnows as bait? Definitely wished I had a big river fishing opportunity like the Detroit or Ottawa close by... |

RE: You gotta love the shore fishing in Ottawa
Under a bobber or on bottom?
Did you just cast out that sucker on a hook? |

Under a bobber about 36 inches in about 8 ft of water to keep the sucker on top of the weeds. With no bober they were all going to ground.

RE: You gotta love the shore fishing in Ottawa
I was in ahurry this morning... Let me add:
I should also add that this spot is between two weed beds and about 20 ft in front there is a good drop off to about 30ft. On Monday I was catching small Perch, Sunfish and small Rock Bass there for the first time ever. There was a splash which I thought was likely a Large Mouth since I caught a couple there. I flipped in a minnow and put my rod down. About 5 minutes later it was almost pulled into the river. I caught a 30 inch Pike in the weeds. The Musky and Pike are following in the bait fish and I think I caught this one in transit. Another neat thing was the sucker could sense the Musky coming.... I saw the sucker bolting looking for cover while the Musky was still about 20ft away.... I got to watch close up as the Musky lunged for the sucker and miss.... turn around and go back for it a couple of times before it caught it. Since I could see what was going on I tried to time the hook set before the Muskie swallowed the sucker and got gut hooked.... I have been looking for a quick strike rig but I have found one yet. |
