Have had some trouble accessing this blog for some time so I decided to start all over again. The first post was from earlier in the year and decided to repost to check my settings.
Got out on Saturday with my fishing buddy, grandson Brenden. Decided to try the Ottawa River out of Arnprior for some Walleye and or Muskie. Ended up catching 14 Walleye from 1 to 3.5 lbs. in about 4 hours of fishing. Worked the edges of a submerged point that was at 9 feet of water, the edges of the point dropped anywhere from 18 to 30 feet of water. All walleyes were taken by jigging twister tails tipped with a piece of worm. Also boated a bunch of catfish, polluted with them up there.
Brenden got a little bored with jigging, so he started casting my large Muskie rig, with a Blue Fox tinsel type spinner, and was rewarded for his efforts with a nice fat 36 inch Muskie. He was casting on top of the point in 10 feet of water, and bringing it back to deeper water when the big one hit. His best Muskie so far, I think he`s hooked, was released and swam away none the worst for wear. Will definately give this spot a serious try for Muskie in the near future. Sorry I will have to break down and get a new camera, my Canon gave up the ghost after about 9 years of solid use.
