Saugeen River, ON Fishing Report.
Posted on October 19th, 2010
Wayne Sheridan reports: Patience and persistence does pay off. We were fishing the Saugeen River and Kait caught this beautiful giant river brown trout. As you can see, the colours of the fish were beautiful. Kait fought the fish for half an hour before we could land this 9.4lb monster. This was her first trout. Congratulations Kait, great fish, the biggest we have ever seen pulled out of this part of the river. Temperatures are returning to normal with fishing opportunities increasing at river mouths.
