So far I've managed to clean out the Jeep from my last fishing excursion, and I'm in the process of sorting out all the gear I may need to bring in the garage. Between the camping supplies, foods, clothes, coolers, fishing gear...etc, plus the kayak up on top of the Jeep, I should have a pretty full load!
Having talked with a few very helpful people whom I contacted online, I've come up with the following itinerary.
July 16th: Hit the road - get a room for the night in Trois Rivieres.
July 17th: Stock up at the grocery store and drive to Mount Tremblant Park. Here I'll start my fishing for Pike, Muskie, Trout, Bass....etc for few days. A huge thank you to local guide Martin Savard for some friendly advice!
July 20th: Head out to Madawaska, ON where I'll stay and fish the region around All Star Resort. I may stop at a lake or pond to fish a few hours along the way.
July 23rd: Off to spend a few nights at Finlayson Point campground where I'll fish the Temagami region for a few days.
July 25th: Head back South to Peterborough where I'll stay with Conrad, a friend who came here to NB in the Spring to go sturgeon fishing. Conrad is a Carp fishing guide so I'm hoping for a few great carp on this leg of the journey!
July 28th: Off to Fitzroy Park on the Ottawa river where we will target Muskie and Gar, among other things. I really hope to catch a gar!!!
July 30th: Leave for Montreal where I'll stay with some friends from University I haven't seen in years!
July 31st: Drive back home.
Even without the fishing, this promises to be an amazing trip through some beautiful country that I have never had a chance to explore before. I can't wait!
