2013 Speck Dreaming

Maybe there are a few others out there like myself. Most of your spring, summer, and fall spare time revolves around Speck/Brookie fishing. Winter has you tied down with other obligations that keep you off the ice. It's downtime from one of your favorite past times. BUT, you may be already dreaming and planning for the spring. Let's hear from some of us dreamers on where they will be heading in 2013. Myself, I am debating a late May trip to the Agawa River basin in the Algoma or heading west to give Lake Nipigon my first try. How about others, where do you want to wander off too?

I dream of someday having the time to jump in Woody 's boat for some spec action . He's the master of the specs ..

My speck hunting only stops when the season is closed and when Jan.1st comes around I'll be walking on water chasing them again .

Ray, I bet those girls of yours are a big part of what takes your time, but hopefully they occasionally take you fishing!

I have caught dozens over 3 pounds and a few over 5 this summer spring and season close early fall il Jan 1st in my fav lake, In the ice I catch them 3-5 and the odd one 6-8. 8 was my biggest and it is being mounted on my wal with another 6 ound malke as I speak, I catch all my brook/speckles within a 2 hour drive from Barrie ON. If you plan on fishimg the wawa/algoma area pm me I will have my faher call you, A spoeck is small to him unless its over 5 pounds, and he has double digit specks from nipigon area, If you afford it is pricey go to Sutton river ON. Bes rIver in the world for 5+ POUND SPECKS consisently all day, 2 guys 60+ Fish days all 2 weeks it. So many its crazy, We were useing mrshmallows on our spinning gear just for a lauugh last time I was there. PM me. Specles are the king of fish to me, I get lots of big ones.

My keyboard is messed right up from my youngest son. I hope you understand what I was typimg if not just ask.

Alden,

Thanks for the post. Sounds like we have very similar passions and definitely need to talk. I sent you a PM.

So where'd you end up going.. and how was the trip? I've personally done lots of spec fishing all southern ontario, central ontario, and northern ontario as well! Fished the agawa's headwaters.. Biggest trout I had were in a river that flows into the missinabi had some nice 2lb+ specs average in there was from 12inch to 18inches.. Biggest we got was around 18 inches but we herd they're in there up to 25 inches! Amazing catches. Best time I found up there for specs is mid june and mid-late september!


Cheers-
