Default Devon bridge today

Went fishing near the Devon bridge. I caught nothing, I have never caught a fish on the NSR! And I never caught a walleye ever in my life. Can anyone help? Where;s a good spot?

yea dont fish in the current as it is usually shallow water hence the current, fish in slower moving water, maby next week i will go with you and show you how to river fish, its alot of fun because its in the city, and you dont have to travel far to catch some huge fish.

shawn you should take thunder out. no fees. it would be great to share some basic river fishing tips with him. a guy can ask for info on this board and receive tips all day long, but to actually watch and learn from someone who's willing to help out, a whole different story. good of you to offer. thunder take him up on it. post some pics of the event.
