Hi,
sound like interesting, can you provide us the direction to go there, we just familiar for Trenton area, don't know the place you mentioned!
Thanks!

It's a bit a ways from Trenton. But here you go. It's about 40 minutes east of Ottawa. A small village by the river. The fishing is amazing. Pike, Walleye, Crappie, perch, sauger and all...You just follow Hwy 174. Can't miss it. Would be nice to have some guys from your area...Hey, maybe even superdad and the gang.
