About Jock River

As a river in Ontario, Canada, Jock River fishes best when the flow is steady and the water is clear enough to see a foot or two down. Anglers who do well at Jock River pay attention to small things: the angle of the current, the colour of the water, what's hatching, where the wading birds are working. Fly anglers can match local insect activity; spin anglers can run small spinners or soft plastics through the same lies.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Smallmouth bass

    Focus your fishing efforts around rocky structures, ledges, and areas with current, as smallmouth bass prefer these habitats.

  • For Northern pike

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

  • For Muskellunge

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