One of the many issues of concern for the fishing and hunting community is recruitment, or, more specifically, the greying of our ranks. In short, we are continually striving to bring new anglers and hunters, particularly youth, into the fold. And more and more, the outdoors community has also been targeting woman as potential new outdoorsfolk of tomorrow. And that’s a good thing. In
Have you made plans for National Fishing Week yet? It’s coming up fast, kicking off this Saturday, July 2, and running through to Sunday, July 10. Even if you don’t participate in an official event, it’s a great time to take a kid fishing or introduce someone new to the sport. That is, after all, the main point of National Fishing Week: to get more Canadians outdoors and
Awesome. Sweet. Dude. Those are the three new words my Dad says he learned during our four days of fishing at northern Saskatchewan’s Milton Lake Lodge (we got back to Ontario on Tuesday). That’s hardly surprising, given we were hanging with Nick Pujic, the hip young principal of Fly Max Films and Fly Nation TV (think surfer culture meets fly fishing), and our guide Naoto Aoki.

When trout are repeatedly rising for flies, My "Floating Menace" is the pattern to try. Tied parachute style, this fly is absolutely deadly when fish are feeding on insects trapped in the surface. The thing that sets parachute flies apart is the way the hackle is tied around a wing post, which sits upright at 90 degrees to the hook shank. ...FISH-ON!
This is the "fluttering" type of Mayfly. It is tied just contrary to a conventional fly; that is, the head of the fly starts at the rear of the hook instead of at the front of the hook. Tying a fly in this manner gives it a fluttering erratic action when slowly retrieved through the water. ... FISH-ON!
This is the Thames River, in Southern Ontario, and its full of pike and bass and many other species to be fished. Get your lines wet and come have a time.

I didn't catch any fish. Just staying in practice I guess. Any time you can fish in January in Kentucky it's a good day. I just really wanted to test my new rod and reel. So, I didn't really go where I know the fish are this time. Still would have been nice to catch just one. You know what I'm talking about. You've been there, done that.

On our way to the Cabin we had to pull a 200lb sled with all our essentials on it for the weekend. It was loaded with canned soup, water, beer, butter, and other foods to hold us over, plus other things we may have needed. It was a struggle getting there but we made it. We fished for a couple days in -18 degree to -25 degree celcius weather and only got a couple pike to bite. It was fun and we
