Walleye & Brook Trout Gold in Algoma
By Pete Bowman
The Fish ’ n Canada Show
Fish ’ n Canada had a couple of interesting shoots this season in the Algoma region of Ontario . The first trip was for a shot at world class brook trout in tiny lakes and the other was for walleye .
The first Algoma shoot didn ’ t disappoint . Angelo took the reigns on this one as he headed into the back lakes via ATV . After a 20-minute trek through the trails he ended up at a tiny lake that boasts some of the biggest “ specks ” that he ’ s ever seen . Along with one of his personal best brook trout between 6 and 8 pounds , he got a bonus of a bunch of fiery , wound up lake trout . This is a great episode and definitely worthy of viewing .
The second trip to Algoma had Pete team up with Danny Thompson from Garmin as they attempted to re-draw over the existing depth maps with Garmin ’ s latest Quickdraw feature . By scanning and then fishing many of the lodge ’ s usual hotspots they were able to pick apart newly discovered “ spots within spots ”. This turned a rather tough shoot ( the Mayfly hatch was in full force ) into a great show .
As per usual , the Algoma region came through again !
