A few friends and I spent a weekend at Springwood Cottages in the Land O’ Lakes region of Ontario, about 4 hours from Toronto. This beautiful collection of cottages sit on the shores of Kennebec Lake, and deep and rocky lake home to Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, Northern Pike, and Sunfish. Springwood offers affordable cottage resort getaways with something for the whole family, read my review for more information.

Chipmunk Fishing

Start your friday off right, have a laugh and watch this video. Some of you probably recall squirrel fishing, but did you know their little cousins, chipmunks, enjoy fishing too? This little guy has more hang time than Michael Jordan!

Remember the guy that caught the elusive oceanic deer?

My Trip to Springwood Cottages

About a week ago I took a trip up to Springwood Cottages with a few friends. We planned this trip perfectly for the opening of bass season here in Ontario and wanted to visit a lake that wouldn’t see much boat traffic. Opening season on some lakes near Toronto can be brutal in terms of the number of anglers on the water. Since Springwood is about 4 hours from Toronto is was both close enough and far enough to provide good fishing and low angling pressure. On top of that Springwoods cottages and services were both top notch, I was so pleased that I decided to review them, which makes this the first cottage review we’ve ever posted.

Springwood Cottages is a beautiful cottage resort open all year, owned and maintained by Cezar Spirala, located on Kennebec Lake in the Land O’ Lakes region of Ontario (near Napanee about 4 hours from Toronto). There are several cottages spotted around this beautiful piece of Canadian Shield land and each is very well maintained and clean. Each cottage also has its own personality and extra amenities, some of which can get pretty luxurious including things like flat screen tv’s and jacuzzi. The decks surrounding the cottages were also in tip-top condition. The area is nicely landscaped and the staff are young, energetic and very friendly.

Please Excuse My Cottage Recovery Coma

Wow. It was a very intense weekend at Springwood Cottages for the opening of bass season. It was a very hot and sunny weekend overall, except for some light rain on Sunday afternoon, I think I even gave myself a good case of heat stroke. Nevertheless we fished Saturday to Sunday from almost dawn to dusk and didn’t get home until about 1-2am Monday morning. So while the heat stroke didn’t kill me you can imagine how I felt on my way to work a few hours later.

When I return from my brief coma I will have a full update about my weekend at Springwood Cottages and Kennebec Lake, but just to tease you a bit I will leave you with a few of my favorite scenery shots and a big frog that took a yellow slug-go.
