See why anglers from all over the world fish the St.
Lawrence River Canada!
Prepare
yourself for some........rod-bending,
arm-aching action with mind blowing results!
Sometimes serene and gentle, sometimes ferocious and
powerful. The entire St. Lawrence River of southeast
Canada flowing about 1,207 km (750 mi) and in width
from 1 to 2.5 kms..
The St. Lawrence Seaway project called for extensive
flooding during it's construction in 1959, thus
altering the rivers structure in our area. The
result was a river with many new islands and shallow
bays, most of which are located directly in our area
and predominately assessable on the Canadian side of
the St. Lawrence. Making this stretch of the river a
perfect habitat for the carp, which were introduced
to the St. Lawrence in the early 1900's, to
thrive... and now they crowd the vast river. The
river holds just the right qualities and abundant
food sources to allow the carp to mature and grow to
sizes ranging from 20 to 50 lbs and up. Making it a
true carp fishing Mecca.
How we fish
You will be
expertly guided by Paul Hunt who has over 25 years experience carp fishing,
Paul has studied the incredible St. Lawrence river, Ottawa river and Lake
Erie from 1990. Paul has found that the Canadian side of the
St. Lawrence river has more features to offer the carp angler and without a
doubt the local knowledge Paul have obtained is priceless. Paul will be able
to fully advise you on the features of
each swim you will be fishing i.e. depths, drop-offs, sandbars, gullies and
weed-beds...etc. You will fish from only the most productive swims on the
river which include private swims located on our property.
You will also fish from swims on isolated islands & banks along the
prolific St. Lawrence River. (You only cast out about 15
to 40 yards in all of the swims) We take a small group of 11 anglers,
to ensure that every angler get's the full benefit of the guides knowledge.
