Smallmouth Bass Fishing
Bass Fishing in Northern Ontario
When it comes to fishing there’s fish and there there is Smallmouth bass. It has often been stated that pound for pound the Smallmouth bass is the fight-ingest freshwater fish in North America. Those of us who have chosen to pursue the smallmouth know this to be an accurate assessment of its personality rather than an exaggeration of their tenacity, acrobatic skill or sheer fighting determination. Few other fish can combine these chracteristics while also providing such enjoyably divese opportunities in fishing style from ultra light spinning rods using Texas rigged rubber worms to top water fishing with poppers or deer hair flies. So whether you consider yourself a Smallmouth fishing fanatic or are simply fishermen wishing to experience catching your first bass, Shooting Star Camp can be counted on to put you in exactly the right location.
For those fishermen who desire to experience smallmouth fishing for the first time or wish to enjoy them equally without the need to give up their favourite walleye and northern pike fishing, we are fortunate in our ability to offer outstanding outpost cabins located in ideal settings where you can fish for all three of these species.
