Hi everyone,

 

I've had a profile here for a while and visit fairly often, but have never really come around to post all that much. I work for the department of the Environment to analyze data on chemicals and do some web work as well. It keeps me really busy so I don't have very many opportunities to post while at work, but at least I can read a little on my breaks. At home, I have a 2-yo son that's keeping me busy so I'm pretty limited in how much I actually use a computer....or ever fish for that matter!

 

On the fishing front, I used to do a lot of tournaments, did fairly well (was the old partner of a guy that won the Canadian Open last year), but it took too much of my free time in the summer. We own a cottage on a private trout lake in Quebec that also happens to hide hoards of brute smallies! On any given day, I'll have the lake to myself to fish for bass ranging anywhere between 1 lb up to 5-6 lbs. while the trout fisherman are out trolling in the middle of the lake while the jetskiers zoom past them. There are no largemouth in the lake. Since it's very deep (200+ ft.), the options for the bass are fairly limited and concentrates them in certain areas. I was more of a largemouth guy before we had the cottage, but since then, I came to truly appreciate how different smallies are and what makes them tick. I've learned a lot of lessons and, quite frankly, helped me think outside the box.

 

I'll try to contribute more often and give you my limited perspective on fishing deep, clear northern lakes for smallies!
