Fly Fishing - Travel Time
Bob Izumi's Real Fishing|Spring 2019

Fly fishing is a perfect opportunity to get out and see someincredible places in this world. It is amazing how manydifferent fish and fisheries are out there that can be targetedwith a fly rod. I have really enjoyed seeing the sightsunder the guise of a fishing trip or sneaking the gear intomy bag on a family tour. Either way, there are ways to getmore out of your travelling fishing experience.

Fly Fishing - Travel Time

Do your research. I have found that part of the fun of traveling is learning about a new fishery and the people that call it their home waters. Finding the techniques and fly patterns they use, and the environment they fish really builds excitement for me. It usually makes a huge mess of the fly tying bench as well, as I get a box of flies ready to go.

ONTARIO FISHING ADVENTURES

Last winter we did a special feature profiling several fantastic fishing resorts in various regions of Ontario. The article was so well received that we decided to do it again, with a new group of lodges. All of this year’s destinations provide top notch fishing for multiple species, they’re relatively unpressured and they are easily accessible by car. From high-end, full service resorts to more laid-back fishing camps, each of these locations offer a unique fishing experience. If you’re thinking about where to go for your next fishing getaway the following pages feature Bob Izumi's profiles of some the trips he made last year. Hopefully they will give you some ideas on where to look for a fishing trip that is sure to meet all of your expectations.

Tales from the Road

As you may know I like driving, so jumping in a vehicle and doing a road trip is appealing to me. For years I would routinely do 100,000 km per year or more on the road. So this Tales starts with me heading out again, back to Brennan Harbour Resort in Spanish, Ontario. Located in Algoma Country, this friendly resort is operated by James and Casey, who are a wonderful couple.

CHAIN PICKEREL ON STRIKE

I’ve never stalked a whitetail deer, but I imagine doing so is a bit like fishing for large chain pickerel. Success is found by locating those prime areas where the big ones live, and by working those areas thoroughly and patiently with exact techniques.

Tales From The Road

Since my last Tales article I’ve been averaging at least six days a week, sometimes seven, on the road. Road trips are, and have always been, a big part of my life. There’s just something about being on the go that I love. In fact, as I wrap up this column I’ll be hitting the road again and I can’t wait, even though I just got back a day ago. I think it’s ingrained in me so much that I don’t mind living out of a suitcase. I know it’s not for everybody, but I like it.

Hidden Gems

Every now and again we anglers are lucky enough to find lakes, ponds or creeks that feel so isolated from civilization that believing they are a reality is sometimes more difficult than finding them in the first place. Stumbling across, or being introduced to, a body of water with such enormous potential for catching fish is what any fishing enthusiast dreams of. Fortunately for myself, I have lucked out three times in one shot.
