I'm out here working at a lodge in Northwestern Ontario called Eagle Lake Island Lodge. It is on an island in the middle of Eagle Lake in Ontario. 99% of our guests are american from the midwest. Eagle is a world famous walleye and musky where not many people target smallmouth at all. Smallies are my passion and I was determined to find some early season bass because at home we can't legally fish for bass until the 3rd Saturday in June. Here are a few beauties from the last few days.

Wow! Awesome fish!
Nice fish! A friend of mine fishes Eagle Lake for musky quite often. The fishing looks spectacular up there.
Beautiful color on those. Is CIR legal right now up there? I know you said 3rd Saturday in June, which is when we go up to the Big Rideau for our annual trip. We'd love to come up for the pre spawn instead of post spawn.
Those are some chunks my friend. Real beauts

The 3rd Saturday in June is when the season starts for bass back home in Montreal. Up here in Northern Ontario on Eagle Lake it is always bass season. lol
Holy smokes those are some beautiful fish! Great Pics

Those have to be some of the prettiest smallmouth I've seen. Nice fish!!!
