About Your Trip

Spend a full day on the legendary waters of the French River with Dale, fishing the scenic and fish-rich stretches of Wolseley Bay and the mid-river system. This is classic Northern Ontario angling — rugged shorelines, current-swept channels, hidden structure, and miles of productive water that hold a true mix of trophy-caliber species.

You’ll explore proven areas like the Chaudière Dam, the North Channel, Five Fingers, and Rainy Rapids — all known for holding quality fish throughout the season. Trips can also be run on Lake Nipissing, including the productive Monetville Arm and Dawson’s Bay, where big fish are always a real possibility.

Dale is a true multi-species guide. Whether you want to jig for walleye, chase aggressive pike, or hunt smallmouth bass in current, he tailors the day to your goals and the conditions. He’s on the water daily from May long weekend through early November and knows how to adjust patterns as seasons shift.

Boat & Equipment

You’ll fish from a fully equipped 19.5’ Lund powered by a 150 HP engine. The boat is outfitted with Garmin electronics including LiveScope, Minn Kota trolling motor, and all the gear needed for a productive day. Rods, reels, tackle, and bait are provided — just bring your fishing license, weather-appropriate clothing, and any food or drinks you’d like for the day.

The French River system is known for its diversity. Depending on season and preference, you can target:

- Walleye
- Northern Pike
- Smallmouth Bass
- Perch and other local species

Whether you’re looking to fill the livewell, chase a personal best, or simply experience one of Ontario’s most iconic fisheries, this trip delivers big water, wild scenery, and serious opportunity.
