Not much choice with that budget, to be honest. You might want to look into a used reel around ebay, kijiji, this forum, and/or various other forums. If you insist on buying a new one, or if you can't find anything used online, you can always check out the big stores. I see a couple reels...

The rattling and movement of the rapala sure attracts fish better than without the rattling, especially in murky water. Fishes sense by seeing, hearing, tasting, smelling, and feeling vibrations with their lateral line. If they can't see, they rely on the rest of their senses to find their prey...

I found a 9', 9wt, 2pc fly rod made by Fenwick in my garage (Fenwick Aspen II AF909). I think it is a rod my dad probably bought maybe some 10+ years ago and never really used it much. In pretty decent condition. Perfect for a beginner who doesn't want to spend too much on a brand new rod. I'd...

Hi all, Looking to buy a decent 6wt fly setup. Currently have a 4wt, but looking to buy another setup with a slightly heavier line weight for some bass and larger trouts. Thanks! -Dan

Thanks! How come our two fish look so different if they're the same kind? Now to find the bigger ones (:

Went out to a nearby stream after work today for an hour or so. There were a bunch of these little guys, but unfortunately im not experienced enough to properly ID this. What is it? photo by dsukh, on Flickr

Thanks for all the I input guys

Had some time to go out today.. Thought I'd practice what I learned on Saturday at the Grand but didn't want to go too far. I dropped by two east tribs but no action. Are the east tribs too warm to hold any resident trouts? I followed one of the creeks all the way up today, and the creek just...

Had a great time on the Grand Saturday. Had about 6-8 recently stocked browns. Nothing too big, but gotta start somewhere lol. The biggest that day was somewhere in between 12-14"?? Thank you Graham for taking me out. Had an awesome and knowledgeable time.

Gonna head out for the first time flyfishing tomorrow. Wish me luck that I don't run into any trouble for unintentional trespassing. Lol. Hopefully I'll run into some resident trout (:

This is getting way too confusing for a hobby....

Any tips you can give me regarding this Graham?

That's IS definitely invaluable information.Thanks! So I SHOULD be fine as long as I make sure I don't step into a stretch of water owned by conservation areas or provincial park. Thanks!

That's an awesome amount of information blair! Thanks! The information you gave me is generally more land-use oriented. Does it apply to stream/rivers too? I've read somewhere around here, or another forum, a while back that a stretch of a particular river bedding is private, but the water is...

Hi guys, Whats the difference between crown land, conservation area, and provincial parks? How do I know if a section of the stream/creek/river is on private or public land? I plan to do some exploring this weekend for some beginners fly fishing and don't want to get in trouble for...

Exactly what I'm worried about with inflatable. Not the strongest swimmer around ahaha. Any other way of determining which area belongs to the crown, which is private, and which is public?

Thanks for all the replies guys. How would I know which stretch of a stream is private property and which isnt? If I'm looking on google map everything pretty much looks like its part of somebody's land. Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Regards, Dan

Hi all, I've decided that I want to try exploring new waters further up north, but I have no idea what to look for. For example, I'm looking on google maps and see a million small lakes by muskoka, but are all these fishable? Do all these little lakes have streams that water can flow in...

Didn't end up going out two days ago due to car problems but went out for a bit today. Beautiful weather today, couldn't get a hit though. Still good to be out again lol

Hi all, Been buried in books for the past few weeks and haven't had a chance to go out for a while now. Now that I'm finally done my exams, I'm itching to go. Since this is my first season, I'm really not sure if it's already too late in the season. Either way, I plan to head to one of the...
