Join me as I fish the Parry Sound region for walleye during the Canada Day long weekend. As we navigate through this beautiful lake you will see plenty of walleye catches, beautiful scenery, some surprise catches, some blue walleye and even a funny clip if you stay to the end! I also share some tips on working a dropshot for walleye, working plastics for walleye, tying your own stinger hooks, and other information you can extract from watching this video! And remember all videos are posted in 4K so dont forget to switch that on for your best viewing experience! Thank you for watching!

Except this is NOT GB and relatively far from Parry Sound. I recognized the lake right away. Quite familiar with it. Used to go there for pike/bass fishing. Didn't know about walleye over there. Anyways... I'm not planning to go fishing at this lake anymore. I prefer to get walleye from Erie. Much bigger and healthier. But you gotta be careful trying to mislead people while showing the scenery around.

Hmmm my intention was not to mislead anyone, I’ve always just referred to this lake as being located in the Parry Sound area. I also never mention that this was on georgian bay as it is obviously not, I will make sure to more accurately specify the area next time! But misleading people on the areas I fish is of no benefit to me and if it were up to me id even mention the specific lake I am fishing if I knew there were no repercussions for it. As for the size of walleye, it is pretty obvious that smaller lakes like this have no chance at competing with lake Erie, but sometimes its about more than just catching monster after monster but rather about fishing in an area that has actual visual appeal. Posting in the GBay section of the forum was solely to give people something to watch in their free time when they are bored rather than insinuating that I was fishing on Georgian Bay.

He wasn't trying to mislead people. When people ask me where I caught a record 53 inch muskie, or a record 17.5 inch crappie, or a record 31.5 inch walleye, I tell them the Peterborough region. The muskie was caught near Cobokonk, as well as the monster crappie. Nowhere near Peterborough. The walleye was caught near Fenelon Falls, nowhere near Peterborough. His videos are posted for people to enjoy, and maybe pick up some tips on catching fish. You even learned something new from his video. Now you know there are big, healthy walleye in that lake that you are quite familiar with. Speaking of healthy walleye, Lake Erie is a walleye factory, everyone knows this. My uncle and his friends have been fishing Erie for almost 70 years. I lived in Kingsville as a child, and my friends and I fished it almost everyday. It was not as clean back then, but has gotten a bit better over the last 50 years. For you to say that the walleye in Erie are much bigger, and healthier than the walleye in other regions is misleading. Open up a big walleye and look at the liver, see if it has white spots on it. I have caught thousands of walleye from the Kawartha lakes region, Muskoka region, Halliburton region, and so on in further northern regions. Hundreds of those walleye have been kept and eaten over many decades. Never have I seen white spots on a big walleye liver in these regions. The same cannot be said about some walleye caught in Lake Erie. I am not saying to anyone reading this that they should not eat fish out of Lake Erie. There is pollution everywhere. I just prefer the moderately cleaner water of the lakes where I fish. And of course the beautiful black and gold walleye that swim in those lakes, with the peaceful scenery and wildlife as a bonus.
