Nice Nottawasaga Steelhead

Friend to Muskoka Outdoors and fly fishing jedi, Gary, caught this beautiful steelhead in the Nottawasaga River close to Barrie.

The November caught trout was a great end to the season for Gary. It also marks the first time Gary has used a guide for this river and attributes the success of the day to his guide, Graham Bristow. In Gary’s words,

We caught 6 steelies in one day, missed at least 4 hook sets and 2 greater than 8 lbs which let go after jumping. Graham showed me how fish this productive river and the technique is much different than I initially read about.

If you would like an exciting day fishing on a Southern Ontario river, like the Nottawasaga, contact Graham through his website: Angler’s Pro.

Fishing and hunting is more about the people you are in the outdoors with, then the fish or game you catch. This is a outdoor truth I learned from fishing and hunting with my father and grandfather at an early age. Whether, I am fishing the back country of a Algonquin Park or the lakes and rivers of my hometown Huntsville, ON the story behind every fish and game animal is better shared with friends. Blogging is the way in which I can share the truths, the teachable moments, and the incredible memories of every outdoors trip. Bill also blogs with the World Fishing Network - http://www.wfn.tv/blog/Bill/
