Fishing in Ottawa

[zippyFX]

Kars is a public boat launch, you can park right just a down the street, free.

Watsons mill has free parking and the dam is were you fish from. I prefer the north side.

Also careful because around thanksgiving they start draining the canal and lowering the water level for winter. I am not sure when it closes this year. This affects everything North of the Long Island locks to the Ottawa River. Kars and Watsons Mill are south of that point so are generally unaffected. It may close as soon as October 13th.
