- How to Find and Catch trout in Algonquin Park!
How's it going all you Average Joes and, Joeettes..?
We're back with another informative fishing video related to everyone's favourite little piece of paradise, Algonquin Park!
With opening weekend of fishing quickly approaching, we thought we would try to help you all by answering some commonly asked questions about fishing for trout in the Park. In this video we run through several of our best tips we can offer you guys for locating your own little hidden gem of a trout lake in the interior of the park!
From mapping, to tackle, to general fishing tips once you've located your spot, we tried to cover all the ins and outs to help bridge the gap between a skunker weekend, and you getting your hands covered in slime from some Native Ontario Brookies!

Good job and coverage on this presentation. 40 years of fishing in APP for brook trout has taught me to tie on a size #2 EGB (colour patter #330) and leave it on. I use them exclusively. In fact, I just returned from two weeks in there and left the EGB on the entire time and caught 4-6lb brook trout consistently in a few lakes, and many many 1-5 to 2lb'rs in almost every other water body I targeted for brook trout. My tackle box is no larger than a pack of cigarettes. It does however include 2 dual willow-leaf spinners, similar to your dad's favourite set-up, to use with organic bait just in case the trout are fussy. Subscribed.
Thank you sir! It’s funny how we always take so many baits but then end up using only a handful! 😂 4-6lbers are very rare in the park so that’s awesome you found your own honey hole! Keep that one quiet in your back pocket 😉
Just a wealth of knowledge right here!🙌 Congratulations on breaking 600 subs boys!🍻
More like a small savings account of knowledge, the wealth comes with age and time 😉🎣 Thanks for that buddy! Here we come 1000!
“…it’s the little things…” hell yeah, thou speaketh high truths
Hoping for early May ice out in Algonquin this year. Heading up to the park mid-may and hoping for some nice brookies. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks so much for watching Gord! I'm very confident that ice out will be coming in April this year! With all the warm weather and rain the ice is pretty much rotten through now. A couple days of big wind and it should start to pile up!
We have a 9 day trip booked mid May! I'm sure you'll get on some, let us know how you do! Glad we could help!
Keep up the good work boys! Good luck out there this season.
Thank you my Lasagna Loving friend! We really appreciate the kind words! All the best out there chasing underwater critters this season!!
Thanks guys for your video I do a lot of fishing in the area I’m from Huntsville just upgraded to a fishing kayak pedal drive unit so hoping to get out to a few new spots I’ve been eyeing up
Awesome stuff Frank! Thanks so much for watching and helping us out!! Best of luck out there this year, I have a gut feeling it’s gonna be a good one! There’s lots of lakes you can catch trout in without having to pack that kayak in too far! What’s it weigh? I think it’d be pretty hard on portages?
Great idea's! Can't wait to get out there.
Thanks Rod! Same here, it’s getting very close to that time!! 👍🏻
Thanks for the good info guys. Cant wait for Ice out , finally after 2yrs lets go!!! New Subscriber here 👍
Thanks for watching and subscribing Frank! We appreciate the support, we will definitely make more informational videos! We’re pumped, it’s been a while since things were normal in the park so it’s gonna be fun! 🏕🔥🎣
You've always got my support! I'll forward your channel to my buds.
Thank you so much!! We really appreciate that, and sharing it would be amazing! Thanks for watching!
Great video. We are heading to Big Trout Lake next week and have a day planned for fishing. We've never had much luck but were going to keep trying. Were bringing worms and more weights for deep trolling. I am going to try that bobber and sinker rig from our campsites. Hopefully that's productive. Nicest trout I caught was on a Len Thompson Five of Diamonds at sunset.
Awesome buddy best of luck in there! Trout will still be pretty deep with the heat, focus on 25-35fow for trolling and find the deepest shoreline you can to camp at!
@@TheAverageJoesFishingShow I have returned! 4 nice brookies out of a creek outflow and 1 on the lake near the surface at sundown. Rained on our fishing day and we caught nothing then, unfortunately.
Thanks for the info
Thanks for watching Billy!
Great information! You guys are up and comers, keep it up
Thanks Dave, can’t wait to get in there and catch some trout with you this spring!
Great job guys! Very helpful. Merry Christmas!
Thanks Jamie! Hope you had a good holidays as well and caught some fish!
😲 interesting, very resourceful
Glad you learned lots!
New subscriber here! Really appreciated that tip with the drop shot rig and a bobber. We are going for a 12 day trip May 13th maybe we will see ya there boys!
Awesome stuff buddy, never know might come across us 😉 Thanks so much for the support and for subscribing, we really appreciate it! That is a great rig, just be very attentive of your line so you don’t miss bites!
subbed my friends! I'm fairly new to Ontario (from B.C.) and am looking to really experience some great Ontario fishing. The wife and I are doing a 3 night camping trip at Algonquin this August so I really appreciate this info. Look forward to checking out more of your content. Thanks guys. Cheers.
Awesome to hear! Thanks so much for the comment, we really appreciate it! If you have any questions shoot us a message and we can help you out if you don’t have any plans set in stone yet! Be sure to watch more! It really helps!
@@TheAverageJoesFishingShow we are planning on starting our 3 day at Smoke Lake, and floating around Ragged Lake and Big Porcupine. Any tips on lures etc? Thanks guys. It's going to be an early August trip.
@@TheWanderingWayfarer Early August is a tough bite generally, but not impossible! Fish the cooler part of the day, being the mornings and evenings. Those lakes are more known for lakers than Brookies, but Big Porc does have the odd nice speck! If you’re looking to venture into some smaller back lakes in that area you’d be more likely to get into Brookies! For lures, remember that with water temps you need to get to the right depths. Lures are similar to those in the spring, spoons (Williams, Weaver Grabbers, etc.) copper coloured works well, gold and silver too. Try using flashier colours during mid day, and fluorescent colours during mornings and evenings. For Brookies, get down to the 25-30fow range, lakers, try for 40fow.
@@TheAverageJoesFishingShow Thank you so much for the info! I'm planning on filming the adventure and I'll be sure to give you guys all kinds of props in the video when I post it. I've recently turned my channel around to focus more on the outdoors (fishing, camping, survival, etc) Once again I really appreciate all the information you have given me and I look forward to checking out more of your guys videos. Cheers!
Right on fellas! How about some summer lead core tips.
We’ll get that video out soon!
Awesome video guys
Thanks Mike! We’ll have you out in the spring for an adventure!
Love the content boys!
Thanks buddy! Appreciate it! Sorry for the delayed response!
I’d like to see how you tie the hook midline , I’m newer to the fishing game
That’s a tough answer to explain over a comment! Essentially, just double the line over into a small loop, out the small loop through the eye of he hook, and bring the loop back around the hook. It’ll allow the hook to slide from the bobber to the sinker without creating any actual knots which prevents line breaks!
We will be doing a complete setup for that style of rig for fishing in a couple weeks from the shores of some Brookie lake somewhere 😁 Thanks for watching buddy and stay tuned for more!
Such a helpful video thanks dudes! Any advice for fly fishing/creek and river fishing for trout(browns, bows, brookies) this time of year?
Thanks so much for watching Evan, and thanks for the kind words! We don’t do much fly fishing, but might try to get into it more! That being said we both do quite a bit of creek and river fishing for brookies! I’m a hook and a worm kind guy, light 4-6lbs mono or fluoro line, a little 5.5ft ultra light rod, a long shank hook and an angle worm or dewie depending on the size of the trout you’re after!
@@TheAverageJoesFishingShow huge help, thanks a lot!! I hope to run into you guys some day, happy fishing!
@@Evan_Le5 these guys know there stuff! They are smart and want to help. Simple worm and hook and tossing it in Eddie's and underbrush works! They helped me 100% and I caught my first Brookie with their advice. Like share and subscribe is the best a advice I can give👍
I'm 15 mins from rain lake road . I gotta get in there this yearrrr. I smell the trout from here lol
Haha Yea you better get in there!! It’s prime time right now!
Looking for some splake lake options in the east corridor. Any suggestions
🤙🏼🤙🏼 good video
Thanks so much! Make sure to Subscribe, lots of Algonquin stuff right on the horizon!
Weber grabbers are killer ridge backs are nice n heavy
Both great options you’ve got that right!
@@TheAverageJoesFishingShow I order my Weber grabbers from Quebec... I love that they maken them with a bronze back instead of just silver
@@derekgraziano9499 we both actually ordered ours from the Quebec site in March or so of this year! We’ll be ordering more soon!
@@TheAverageJoesFishingShow nice I've been using them for years they are great ... it's cheaper to orderyres from Quebec no matter what ur gettimg I find ... those spoons are killa budday
@@derekgraziano9499 they are deadly for sure!
350 lakes with brookies (tops, likely closer to 250) and about 100 lakes with lakers give or take!
I trust your numbers over mine! 😂 I thought I read those numbers somewhere a few days before recording this but I was definitely out to lunch! Only 100 lakes with Lakers though eh? Crazy!!
Ballpark at least, I think tops 150. Trout lakes are rare lol

Hey guys, Going in the end of may for a week, any suggestions on what depth to start trolling at around that time of year
Hey Tyler! Thanks for watching buddy! End of May is kinda that in between phase for finding trout that depends on how warm the previous month was! For end of May, you’d be safe to try casting into the shoreline during the mornings and evenings, you’ll still get fish busting bait up in the shallows during the cool times of the day! Mid day, I would troll out in 15-20ft. You don’t have to get very deep, 10ft down should be plenty at that time of year! Troll flashy lures during mid day. Fish shiny lures during bright weather, and bright colours and glow colours during low light hours!
@@TheAverageJoesFishingShow ill keep you posted on how we do. Thanks for sharing, very informative
@@tylerhall9715 yea bud make sure and let us know how you do!! 👍🏻 I’m excited to hear from everyone! Glad we could help you out! Stay tuned for big things coming on the channel this May!
I've target dace also are killer .. the smelt to
Never tried these for Brookies but might have to now!
Live targets .. sry typo in my first message ... live target dace minnow and smelt ..
Guys, you know if the ice is out of the lakes yet in the Lanark and Calabogie area?
Wouldn’t be yet, but I’m thinking it’s gonna start piling up this weekend with the heavier winds and after all the rain the next few days! I would say by Monday you’ll be able to fish the bigger lakes, smaller high elevation lakes will be about 1-2 weeks after!
@@TheAverageJoesFishingShow Thanks
hey guys, I will be the in Toronto the first week of October, is it worth to go fishing in th Algonquin park? or is it too late? thx in advance
Trout fishing in Algonquin closes on the last day of September, so if it’s October you’ll be too late!
@@TheAverageJoesFishingShow Thanx for answering, is there another place close to Toronto where you would recommendo to go fishing in october?
I was under the impression that live bait like worms are forbidden in Algonquin Park?
Live bait in the park is regarding live minnows not being allowed, the regs explain more in depth!
We should also clarify that there are also certain lakes where there is no organic bait allowed, which would be what you are referring to. Not many but that can also be found in the regulations book!
I'll be listening carefully .
Well not much help for me. First my tackle box is the same as your blue one and that is too big. Use the same lure the whole trip unless i lose it on a snag. And that lure goes for bass , lakers and pickerel too. Using this for 35 yrs. My reel is a shimano Mark IQ . Just picked up a second one off ebay. Its vintage now. Rod is a 5 ft zebco telescopic . Most people are using way too much reel and rod . I've got specks up to 6 lbs .Bass too. Maybe I'm missing something but i've had some pretty good days of speck fishing
Hey guys great video, tried to find a drect website for Jeff's maps any ideas or links.
Just checked online , seems to be a mess with people not getting maps they paid for .any change of getting a copy of map for lower algonquin thanks
Jeff’s Maps has kinda had some difficulties like you mentioned! There are some websites that you can still find it on and download the PDF
