Default NSR Sunday

I might head to hermitage park area to fish the NSR. I have never caught a walleye in my life. What tackle should I bring ?

Hopefully this link works right...Google Maps is your friend

edit: that's just searching from Spruce Grove to Hermitage Park, Edmonton. You should be able to customize it so it gives you directions right from your house

Ya there is lots of parking down there. Just follow the road to the left. You will see the parking. Follow the path past the out house and you will see the outflow into the river. Great spot. Good luck!!!

Loads of parking there! If you strike out bring your trout gear and give the ponds a try.

Just got back from the river out towards Genesee. Landed a decent sized RM Whitefish on a worm/pickeral rig

Fished it last week and pulled a big sucker out of there too.
