Excellent Bass Fishing, Trout Fishing and some Walleye Fishing on ...
The "Grand River Rafting Company" offers guided drift boat fishing on platformed rafts down the Grand River in Paris, Ontario. Fishermen will find abundant smallmouth bass, fall/spring rainbow trout… as well as pike, walleye and big carp. All trips are very reasonably priced. A five hour guided fishing trip for two with lunch is $200 total with a platform raft. Drift boat rafting is the most satisfying experience for fishing the Grand & Nith Rivers. Two fishermen can stand on the platforms and do trout fly fishing or fly fishing for bass with lots of space. Or for those that bait cast, they can sit in deck chairs elevated above the water level to easily see striking fish. The best thing about raft platform fishing is that the speed of the raft allows excellent casting opportunities at each fishing pool.
Heat, rain blamed for fish kill
ALTO -- A fish kill last month in Tyler Creek likely was natural -- caused by a long heat wave and a heavy rain the night before, state officials said today. As many as 2,000 brown trout, ranging from 3 to 20 inches, were found floating in Tyler Creek on July 28. The creek feeds into Coldwater River, popular among anglers. Michigan Department of Environmental Quality spokesman Robert McCann said a state investigation showed the heat and rainwater likely depleted oxygen levels in the creek, leading to the kill. .
Fly fishermen love challenge of going after mahi-mahi
Of all the fish in the sea, for this guide, the mahi-mahi is the most thrilling to catch on the fly. Not the biggest or hardest fishing, mind you, but when I think of exciting, visual fly fishing, nothing can top the spectacular colors or leaps of the dolphin fish. This week, fly anglers from Manasquan to Cape May saw an influx of warm blue water in the 12- to 20-mile range. This is warm, crystal-clear blue water that spins off the Gulf Stream. With it, a plethora of open-sea species and life has made its way inshore, and the bulk of these fish have been 10- to 20-pound mahi-mahi, just perfect for the fly angler. When we are lucky enough to have this water quality inshore, fly anglers looking for mahi-mahi should focus their efforts around areas of visual structure.
