Decided to give Owen Sound a whirl today seeing that the north shore of Ontario was iced out for most of the week but starting to warm up. Headed out around 6am once the rain let up some. Got set up in 80-90 fow and trolling out of the bay around the red doors. Didn’t take long to get one about 7lbs on a Best Lure plug (like a lyman). We were marking a good number of fish but about 20 minutes later we got chased off the water cause of lighting. We left the boat in the water as the radar was showing it should clear in 40 minutes or so. We headed back out to the same area and got two more and then the wind picked up from the east and south east so we made our way across the bay to fish the east side out by the green can. Got in to around 110 fow and lots of fish and bait on the screen but the rain started to get heavy again. Seeing two of my buddies have been fighting colds and we were all damp…wet and cold we called it a day around 10am.
Owen Sound and I have a love hate relationship as I usually only land 1 fish or a skunk occurs. Needless to say I was very happy we got the 3 today and if it wasn’t for the weather I feel we may have had a really great day.
