Hey guys and girls, I'm jeff. I joined a few days ago and am really liking the forums, so far, great tips and pictures.
As for me, I'm 21 and for the last year I've deeply immersed myself into fishing, I fished as a child with my family and went out once in a blue moon with friends, but now i'm addicted haha. . I'm far from a pro, and have yet to land a lot of Ontario species I want, but luckily time's on my side to find them :) . I definitely plan on fishing for all species this year, as of now I've only caught LM & SM bass, rock bass, yellow perch, bluegill, Pike, pumpkinseed, Channel & brown bullhead Cats, chub, emerald shiner, Carp and Black crappie. As for gear I love bait casters, but I also have a few back-up spinning rods, usually lined with 20lb braid.
Pretty much this year I plan on learning as much as I can, and trying to net as many new species as I can, and this seems like a good place to start, anybody looking for a fishing buddy, I'm always around Cambridge and KW.
 
Hey Jeff, Welcome to the forum! I'm from Hamilton myself. Tons of great fishable water around you, I love fishing the Cambridge area, especially a certain large river :p Im always up for a fishing buddy so let me know!
 
Nice to meet you buddy, and haha I have a good feeling I know which one you're referring to :p. What do you fish for? I'm always up to meet new anglers and try new places, baits, techniques.
 
Mainly fish for smallmouth, and pike, but will fish for most sportfish. Especially love fishing for them in the rivers. Maybe we'll have to meet up some time!
 
Same with me actually, I'm a bass addict and have been catching pike all winter haha. I'd be up for a pike trip when the rivers thaw out
 
Yeah river fish always have a good fight in them, and there are some good spots local to me, and most likely you as well haha.
 
Hi. I see you already have carp on your list of fish caught. If you get some more post them up. We love carpy pics. :)
 
Will do, I just started catching them this past summer and really enjoyed the fights. These two are so far the largest and longest I've caught. Unfortunately I was alone so I had to lay them on the ground for the picture, but neither injured themselves beyond the initial hook damage.
