Thank Mike. I might try going out early morning this weekend. Since I am new to Carp, I would like to keep things simple and just use corn. Have you guys had success with corn?

Good stuff! Pike fever going on in this forum

Thanks for the tips hammercarp! I am just looking into getting started with Carp fishing this year.

Very nice Pike! Congrats on the catches!

Hi Guys, What do you think about Carp fishing during day time and during night time. Are carp more active in the dark or when its light? Would appreciate it if some of you experienced carp anglers have any advise on time of day to fish carp! Thank you!

According to this article, the rouge river mouth may yield pike: http://torontofishing.net/rouge-river-mouth-fishin/ I went there last week right under the railway bridge near the mouth. Stuck around for maybe 40 mins, then got bored and left. If you are casting overhead standing under or...

Wow! I have heard of pike eating pike, but never seen pics of it. That must have been an absolutely mind blowing experience! Thanks for sharing the pictures. I just started fishing last summer, and got into pike fishing at frenchmans bay around November last year. Most of the times I have...

Yep shore fishing @ the foot of Liverpool rd. I think practicing catch and release at this location is a good idea since a lot of people fish there and it would suck if all the fish were gone!

Braved the winds and went out last Friday evening to Frenchmans bay to target Pike. It was WINDY and the water was moving fast. My buddy and I managed to Catch and Release 2 pikes. Below are the pics: As you can see, this guy was caught on a Rapala husky jerk using a steady medium speed...

You can fix the problem with the crank bait floating up by simply putting 1 or 2 slip shots on your line about 1.5 ft. away from the crank bait (I caught pike with this setup) I have tried the pause and retrieve method and it did work on landing pike a couple times, but so far I had better...

Across the open water. I generally fish on the other side across the water from where you took that 2nd pic from. Then I cast close to the docks, and reel in. On many occasions pike follow the bait right up to the shore but dont bite, they just turn around and go back. I think they hang out...

If I remember right last Sunday was pretty cold! I was there 2 weeks ago and buddy pulled out 2 pike no more than 2ft. long, they were released back in the water. There are fish there, but getting them to bite is the hard part. I caught 4 pike in about 4 hours span there one day, all were...

Yes docks and weedlines are great spots. I tried fishing pike at different times of the day in Frenchman's bay....early morning around 6am got a couple of follows but no bite, afternoons no luck, but around the sunset time and into the dark were the most successful. Pike are very active when...

Wow, those are beasts! I like what I see

Hi Ambitious Ontarian, I have caught pike at frenchmans bay around end of november last year. A key part to catching them is what bait you use. Bright color Crank baits seemed to work for me. You have to be very patient and best time to catch them is around sunset. Hope this helps!

I have never been there, but heard its a good spot!

Hi! Caught 2 large pikes, about 2.5 feet long! At frenchman's bay after sunset.

I will try crankbait and worms on spinner rig. Lets see how it goes. I hope I have some beginners luck!

This is the spot I was in: 5078 Rice Lake Drive North. Which spot did you try? I was thinking of checking out Frenchmans bay and rouge river early Sunday morning around sunrise. But not sure if I will be able to make it to Rice Lake. Let see, fishing is a whole new thing to me, I have just...

I would like to try for walleyes & crappies too. Went to rice lake a couple weeks ago and tried fishing from the shore beside the LCBO there, across from Rinohs Restaurant. Didn't catch a thing, used worms. Do you go out on a boat or fish from the shore? What time of day is good for walleyes...
