To start things off, I must say it was a very lacklustre Fall Smallmouth season on our favourite rivers. There was no substantial rain to allow us to run the rivers in kayaks until early December and now we've had large doses of combined snow and rain over the past two weeks. I was a bit of a nightmare for steelheading to on the river systems that are dependant on Fall rains. Not to say we didn't still have good Fall fishing. Quite the opposite actually because we focused our time on the big girl, that being the mighty Niagara River, and she never let us down! OK, maybe once, at a critical time in October. That's one trip out of 20 where we never landed fish!
It has now been two full weeks since we were able to get back to the Niagara due to huge gale-forced winds coming across Lake Erie from the S-W and churning up mud at the river mouth. Environment Canada forecasted 4-6M, yes I said metre waves around the Buffalo area last week, and they did arrive.
The weather is bit chilly right no but things are looking up towards Friday and into the weekend.
The 2010 Nomad Adventures event planning is in full swing and we have several events on tap for this coming year. These events include a 3 tournament series, a season long bass tourney and several demo days throughout the summer. These events will be posted at www.nomadac.com , Yakfisher.net and on our Facebook page. The 3 tourney series will end with an Grand Champion who will walk away with some serious prizes. There will be an early registration incentive for those wishing to compete in each event and save some cash on entry fee.
Lots more details to follow.
Nomad Adventures will be hosting a Kayak Fishing Clinic at Fogh Marine in February just before the spring shows. We will also be in the Spring Fishing Show, Niagara Outdoor Show and Toronto Sportsman Show.
Hope to see you out!
