Fishing in Algonquin Park

We recently spent time in the beautiful outdoor camping and fishing in the amazing Algonquin Park. Its breathtaking lakes made for an incredible adventure. For those of you that are not familiar with Algonquin Park you will find that it is located in Northern Ontario and offers a remarkable fareery. There are many links available if you Google Algonquin Park.

We had a great time and found that it was everything and more that we had been told by others. Our goal on this trip was to Bass Fish. Our time and lures were dedicated to fishing bass. However, these lakes offer all forms of fish and hold many trophy fish for dedicated anglers. There are local fisherman ready to share their tales and brag about how fortunate they are that this fishery is in their backyard.

Algonquin has a reputation for some of the best trout fishing in Canada. More than 230 lakes have native Brook Trout and 149 have Lake Trout – a fantastic concentration of trout waters that continue to yield good fishing because of the Park's tradition of wise conservation.

Along the highway, many of the lakes are stocked with Splake (a hybrid of Brook and Lake trout) and fishing is outstanding. Spring is the best season for trout and summer brings on more enjoyment with Smallmouth Bass. Spend a day with the family at a prime bass location, enjoying the scenery and reeling in the nights dinner.

The park holds amazing scenery and the endless streams and tribunals offer wildlife at its best. You will find that it holds close and personal adventures to the great outdoors. A camera is a definite must and the opportunity to take some spectacular shots awaits you.

We spent time camping and enjoying the stars as they fell from the sky. Sitting around the campfire and bragging about our days catch and the big one that should have been. Guaranteed Algonquin will make great stories to bring home to your fishing buddies.
