Hiya folks,

Gord Pyzer here, from Outdoor Canada Magazine.

Some do, but most don’t. What am I talking about?

We just have enjoyed one of the best smallmouth days ever. We were catching 3.75 – 4.5-pound smallmouth up in Northern Ontario. But the reality is, you can’t see that on most lakes.

If you want to get into big fish, big muskies, big walleye, big smallmouth, big largemouth, you got to pick a lake that has a history of producing them. You want to catch the biggest muskie of your life? Really, you got to stick to the St. Lawrence, the Ottawa, Lake of the Woods, Eagle Lake, Lac Seul. You want to catch those giants? Stick to a lake that has a history. Smallmouth bass? If you’re not fishing in South Eastern Ontario, you’re missing out on the best opportunity.

Happy Fish’n,Gord “The Doc” Pyzer
