What we will do?

We will meet at a secret fishing spot (local river or lake within 30 minutes drive of Kanata, Ontario) and I will host a fully guided four hour motor boat fishing experience. Fishing gear, life jacket, bait and all other required fishing and safety equipment are provided. The activity starts with a basic water safety tutorial and fishing techniques lesson. Once the guests are comfortable with the basic mechanics of casting and trolling, we then start fishing targeting aggressive northern pike, acrobatic bass, tasty walleye and many other fun sports fish species.

The exact species of fish we target and techniques we use will depend on the current fishing regulations as well as preference of the guest. Guests are welcome to keep any legal fish caught and enjoy a nice fresh fish meal at home. This activity is ideal for families and kids as we will be fishing on calm waters and I love to teach kids to fish and see the excitement on their faces when they hook and land a fish all by themselves.

What is Included?

All fishing equipment (rods, lures, baits, etc...), life jackets and top of the line fishing electronics are included. All you need is suitable clothing, water, snacks and a valid ontario fishing license (only needed for adults between 18 and 64 who are not disabled or veterans)

Meet your host, Sherif

I have been in love with fishing since I was very young. I love everything about it from buying fishing equipment to discovering new places to fish to the thrill of actually catching fish. I especially love boat fishing because of the freedom it gives me to discover new places that are not accessible from shore.

I also love to teach others how to enjoy this great sport. Since high school I have always been passionate about sharing my knowledge with others and the only thing that makes me happier than fishing is helping others learn and enjoy this great activity. I can talk for hours about fishing and never get bored and I hope some of that will rub off on my guests. If you want learn more about me, feel free to check out my YouTube channel “Selfie Fishing Adventures”.
