About Severn River

Running through Ontario, Canada, Severn River is the kind of river that fishes well at the right water level. Drop a lure or fly into the bubble line at the head of a pool and let the current swing it past holding fish. Long, slow glides at Severn River hold the bigger fish; the broken water above and below holds the smaller, more aggressive ones. Stay quiet on the bank — river fish are easily spooked.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Northern pike

    Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.

  • For Largemouth bass

    Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.

  • For Muskellunge

    Use a figure-eight retrieve at the boat to entice followers to strike close to the boat.
