Spring kayak fishing the Ontario Great Lakes

The groundhog said six more weeks of winter from Feb 2....  he was wrong!  It has been a lot of years, close to 20 since I was able to put some decent time in on the spring Great Lakes fishery.  April is normally our second busiest month for river guiding, but the winter that wouldn't go away gave us some time for personal fishing. 

Canadian kayak fishing guide Jeff Wall showcases his spring catch. Over 40 fish caught in six outings last spring. All were salmon or trout except one giant out of season walleye.
Steelhead, Coho Salmon, Brown Trout, Chinook Salmon, Atlantic Salmon, Walleye, Lake Trout were all caught and released over six separate days of fishing.

Long lining shallow crankbaits on light lines pretty much sums up the spring kayak fishing in Ontario for the Great Lakes region. We employed a variety of minnow baits, smaller spoons, and kwikfish style lures. Slow trolling with abrupt direction changes were the ticket in the open water trolling but crashing two lures thru the baitfish schools got us several doubles. I don't have to tell you how exciting that is in a kayak!


Please always consider best practices when heading out on the Great Lakes, especially when it is still winter. Better yet, hire a guide!

Be sure to look up Nomad Adventures for your next spring kayak fishing trip.

Hope you  enjoy!
