More Fishing in Big Canoe…
By admin | April 12, 2008
Recently, I blogged about vacationers enjoying fishing while staying in one of the many available Big Canoe rentals. As I mentioned in that article, there are three lakes in Big Canoe, 2 of which are available for fishing. These two lakes are also stocked on a regular basis. Along with some of the rules regarding fishing in Big Canoe, I repeated some advice given to me by some folks that appeared to be having really good luck with the rainbow trout. They told me that the fishing slowed in the hotter part of the day, and then picked up again when it started to cool.
What’s funny is that on that same day, I spoke with a young man that had been fishing for some time. His family was spending time in one of the Big Canoe rentals while the Masters took over their hometown with golf crazed Masters fans. When I spoke to this young man, he told me he had not caught much. He showed me a stringer with a smallish bass, and he looked a little down. Regardless, I took his picture and mentioned I would put it up on our website at http://ibavacationrentals.com.
About 2.5 hours later (early evening), I happened to be driving by the same spot where we had spoken earlier, and I saw the young man walking off with a HUGE rainbow trout (as well as a stringer of smaller trout). I managed to catch up with the young man, spoke with him briefly about his catch, and snapped his picture. The large rainbow was easily 4 pounds, and this kid had a big smile to go along with his prize. Persistence paid off, and I am sure his catch will make a great memory of the time his family rented a place in Big Canoe to get away from the Masters!
