Hello All, Please read and help get the word out! Please repost wherever you think this will help best! I don't think a lot of people are aware what is going to happen next week with Bill 229 in particular schedule 6 that the current Ontario Government is trying to pass. Anyone who fishes...

Anyone have anything to say about this reel? I checked around but couldn't find many reviews or videos of this reel. I'm just wondering if its a good buy.

Hey guys, I got the call late friday night from buddy Lyle and he said things were looking good so i grabbed the cameras and headed for the big river. Needless to say, we locked into some solid action and got them dialed in pretty quickly. This was my first time doing this style of fishing and...

Hi there, Wondering what everyone uses for leader sizes when they float for steelhead. I typically use 6lbs flouro but after breaking off 2 or 3 times setting hooks on saturday I switched to the 10lbs flouro line I use for spin fishing out of frustration. Hooked into a fish within 15 minutes...

Hey everyone. I tried inflated worms for steelhead the last couple years and had my best year yet this past spring. I know there are other options but not sure what else might work as good for me. Usually fishing in small creeks/rivers. Anyone got any thoughts? Also, just wanted to share this...

What lures have you been catching steelhead on in muddy water lately?

Is a 6-weight fly rod enough for steelhead? Most of the fishing I do is in smaller streams so its not too deep but it can be snaggy at times. Is a 9-foot 6 weight enough or should I upgrade to a 7 or 8 weight rod?

Hello OFF! The main reason for my post is seeing some of the other posts and comments made on his forum have me wondering if what I do a the river is in the best interest for preservation (I always catch and release at the river and I only use Roe as a last resort when fishing. I also want to...

Hello Ladies and Gents of OFF! Just wondering what your opinions are on the "best" wading net! I know companies such as Rising have grown a lot in popularity, I am looking for something small enough I can carry on a retractable or magnet as I wade and use it only when needed! I have a few...

I was wondering if anybody new if any steelhead have been running up any of the rivers around Toronto (that are still legal to fish e.g the rouge)? Thanks.

Hey there folks, My Name is Logan, I've been fishing for my whole life and in the last few years came to be addicted to fly fishing and having moved around Ontario lots, this forum has helped me learn as much as I can and point me in the right direction every time I move somewhere new. Up to...

Electroreception is just another sense to a fish. We don't even think about it in human terms, yet all living things give off voltage. There have been countless studies done on the subject. Just think for a moment about how far light penetrates water. Measurable light is virtually gone at 500 ft...

Hi all. I am the inventor and manufacturer of Lurecharge products. I have had a ton of fun developing my system. We don't use it but fish do ... electroreception, that is. It is just a natural sense to them and I have figured out how to get the receptive ones to come to your lures. So far, I...
