The 3 day Canadian Open had a wonderful start on Lake Simcoe and Lake Couchiching. Under calm skies, warm temps and light winds the pro angler and their co-angler were able to target the giant smallmouth that call this fishery home. Day 1 leader, Cal Climpson is just ahead of Chris Johnston and older brother Cory. These three young anglers represent a second generation of top Canadian anglers battling for tournament glory.
