Kawartha Lakes, Ontario

I probably won't be out fishing for a while because of school. But I'll try to get out there as many times as possible 😉!

My first walleye! It took a KVD 100 jerkbait, hit like a perch lol Third day trip on the yak, this time not alone. It turned into an unexpected adventure. We pushed our equipment and ourselves to the limit and traveled nearly 25kms! We started from a launch on the south side, where the shallow clear water revealed a couple of BIG bass. 1 had to be 6lbs. Unfortunately the clarity meant I saw the fish after they had already noticed me, even as I carefully scanned while slowly gliding forward. The number of boats fishing was pretty astounding. It's obviously a very well used resource. The amount of baitfish in the shallows was mindblowing. There were stretches where they were everywhere you look. We traveled north all the way to the bridge just to check it out, and we're only really able to find some willing small bass in an isolated reed patch. We severely underestimated the time required to head back and it took like 2~3 hours with our batteries dying and pedaling part of the way. The swarms of mosquitoes at the end chasing us into our cars was not fun x.x but the 10pm Wendy's meal was pretty satisfying. All in all an unforgettable trip!
