favorite species

[zippyFX]

A have only fished actively for two seasons so my experience is much more limited than many here but i am found of the following in the this order:

- Catfish/Bullhead: Their ubiquitous is the Ottawa area has let me try a variety of approaches in a variety of locations
- Musky/Pike: I like the thrill of a bigger fish; they are common in enough in the Ottawa area to be caught but you still have to work at finding them (especially Musky)
- Crappie/Bluegill/Pumpkinseed: They provided a great step back into fishing last spring

This summer I am hoping for Gar, suckers, redhorse, and a sturgeon would be nice incidental catch (as would Ling)
