Who's Bytown Bassin? Great video man, heartbreaker at the hole and redemption. Great visuals and start to the season. Cya out there soon

[@ToughCountry]

No clue who that guy is tbh haha! Thanks man. It was a solid couple trips with the boys! Stoked for the rest of the season.

[@JohnSmith-ml3ed]

Thanks for letting me come out with you and Doyle. Great time on the ice.

[@ToughCountry]

No worries John! It was fun watching you catch fish out there!!

Thanks dude!

[@GalensFishing]

Wow awesome guy's 👌

[@ToughCountry]

Thanks Galen! They were some fun trips!

[@Disturbed420420]

Another nice video bro, glad you found some good ice. I'm hoping we get some good fishing in the Ottawa area soon lots of open water on the river still for sure

[@ToughCountry]

Thanks man!! It was fun for sure. This winter has been super bad for making ice but fingers crossed we get some good ice close to home soon!

[@xcom5121]

Sick video man! Nice! one suggestion get a firmer rod for a good hookset on walleye i like a medium fast !

[@ToughCountry]

Glad you enjoyed it dude! Thanks for the tip man!

[@noahvanwill]

I've never commented here before but your channel is awesome! I remember trying to fish in some of the areas up in the highlands, understanding how difficult it was and seeing you guys crushing it! Has been quite motivating and maybe why I enjoy backcountry and the more difficult to access lakes now. Keep it up, and I hope we cross paths someday!

[@ToughCountry]

Thank you Noah! Welcome to the club! I’m glad we could inspire you to try some back country lakes. It can be tough but it’s always a fun experience and worth it every time! Really appreciate this comment dude. Hope to cross paths with you one day as well!

[@noahvanwill]

@@ToughCountry Sounds like a plan! Good luck out there for the early season!

[@ToughCountry]

@@noahvanwill thanks buddy, you too!

[@CastandConquer]

Heart breaker on loosing that big one in the hole.

[@CastandConquer]

Super underrated channel. Love your videography man. Awesome video.

[@ToughCountry]

Thanks my man!! Really appreciate the kind feedback. Lots of hard work goes into these videos! We gotta fish soon dude!

[@Vic_peche]

@@CastandConquer this is exactly what im thinking !!

[@kro5579]

recognize both spots !! i had heard there was walleye in that first lake but never actually seen or caught one, what a tank ! nice catch man. how long ago was this ? wondering about ice thickness. especially the spot in the second part of your video.

[@ToughCountry]

This was a few weeks ago! Lots of snow out there now. Unless you have an atv or snowmobile you wouldn’t make it to the first lake.

[@kro5579]

I am all geared up with a snowmobile and portable hut and heater. I know what you mean, they don’t maintain the road in the winter eh. Man I would love to join if you guys ever go back. I’ll keep it a secret don’t worry

[@ianjasonbyerley4022]

Did you measure the big walleye?

[@ToughCountry]

No I didn’t but it was probably 23-25 inches!

[@ianjasonbyerley4022]

Colours on it were amazing. Love when walleye look like that!

[@ToughCountry]

@@ianjasonbyerley4022 me too!! Just stunning!

[@fishingadventures8004]

How deep will the deeper pro read? I’ve been researching and if I do get a finder I want either garmin striker 4 or deeper what’s better

[@ToughCountry]

The Deeper Pro reads up to 262 feet deep. I have both and always find myself using the Deeper more often. Hard to beat the portability of a Deeper and the technology inside it is pretty impressive.

[@gregalpinab7]

Unwatchable 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@ToughCountry]

Why is that?
