Are there any campsites in Sylvania that you can car camp and be close to a lake and launch a kayak?
@wanderingoglethorpe9 күн бұрын
maps.app.goo.gl/HUNXYSs2cjz6bgeL6 There's a small campground on Clark Lake. I'm not sure what access looks like on Clark but I know you can pretty much just drive up to Crooked Lake to launch. You will need to go through the rules and regs of Sylvania at the welcome center for any trip you do however. Thanks for watching!

In your experience do their colors change during the year?
@wanderingoglethorpe3 ай бұрын
Absolutely. Usually it depends on water clarity, depth or what the bottom looks like. Usually in this section of river they are typically brown or tiger striped. But I've caught fish within fifty yards of each other on the river that have looked completely different.

Nice lake for this type of fishing in our opinion, we like smaller lakes that don't have crazy boat traffic or have nice places to explore when we are on our kayaks. We hear of generator issues all over in the State, haven't seen major issues personally but have been told many stories about things getting out if hand over this (fighting, arguing, etc) -- who knows if the crazy stories are true.

It's starting to get cold here in MD, bet its really getting cold up there. I have a couple friends that used to live in Michigan, they say there is some great fishing there. Good looking river. You got some nice ones. I'm done kayak fishing this year til March. Smallmouths are so fun to catch. Even the small ones sure do jump & fight. You got another sub.
@wanderingoglethorpe9 ай бұрын
It does get pretty cold sometimes here, not as much as it used to unfortunately. Now a lot of times we just get stuck with wet and rainy rather than snow and ice. I typically fish year round, as long as the ice doesn't completely take over. That's usually in waders though, I really try to be careful and pick my days when I go kayaking in the winter. It can be dangerous but the pay offs can be next level if you hit it at the right time. Thanks for the sub and appreciate you watching! I'd love to get out and fish the east coast sometime. So much beautiful water over there

Nice video & great fishing! FYI, I like the quick boatside releases - much prefer to see this than the fish being held out of the water for a "better look". I do have a question, though. How do you like your current kayak? I'm currently trying to choose between a used native watercraft fx12, or a new pelican sit on top. It'll be used for pike fishing on lakes and polders. I'm uncertain about how the fx12 will handle the wind vs. a sit on top, and how easy the fx12 is to re-enter if you ever roll it. Thanks from The Netherlands 👍

@wanderingoglethorpe Жыл бұрын
If you're planning on fishing it I would make sure you bring a chain anchor (always use chain for the river, it won't get caught as easily as other anchor types). I would also check the flow beforehand to make sure it's at the right levels before you plan a trip. While there's no major rapids or anything it does have a good pace to it and if you're not careful in higher water you can get yourself into a dangerous situation if you're not paying attention. If you contact Matt at Mainstream he can tell you when the best time to fish it is. He runs float trips on the river regularly and can help you pick out baits to try.

The yo zuri is a more versatile bait in my opinion. Try walking it back to you with rod twitches . You can walk it like a traditional plug while still having a prop on the back when and it you need it. The whopper or its close cousin the choppo is an amazing bait but it's a one trick pony and if all that noise youre making isn't turning the fish on its over with. The yo zuri you can slow it down if the fish want a little more finesse that day. That being said if the fish want a big loud bait its hard to beat the plopper
