jdionne24 Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Just looking for some info, has anyone fished any of the quarries in the port colborne area. Just wondering if it's worth a try. Heard thier was some decent size bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkEdge Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 That was me. Fished there for about an hour or so on Monday. Caught a nice largie on pearl white senko, rigged Texas weedless. He hit it like a truck, too. I know most people fish the east side of Quarrie Rd., but I prefer the west side. I take the time to trek around to the far west end, where the small islands are. The water there isn't deep, few feet at the most, and the bass are up in the warmer water right now. I saw a half dozen in the .5 to 1.5 pound range, only got the one, but my heart wasn't totally in it that morning. (Dental work, the right side of my face was numb) White's the colour I've heard over there. I know there's pike, if you want to try to kayak or canoe it into deeper water. I also saw some massive bluegill swimming just above the weeds on the east side. I guessed in the .5 pound range on them, but didn't have any worms, so I didn't get any out.

dave524 Posted July 28, 2019 Report Share Posted July 28, 2019 I fished the ones just east of Cement plant Rd back in the '70's, used to be a popular swimming hole before the homes were built off Clarence. Best fishing was in the one north of the tracks, good Largies, ton of stunted,overpopulated Bluegills and I recall one large Pike about 10 pounds once.

Chrisb Posted July 28, 2019 Report Share Posted July 28, 2019 If you fish Quarry road be aware of the no parking signs. The Wainfleet parking police are there regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I got crappie there was five years ago; and tried this year...seems crappie all gone, like other places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgm Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 I always liked fishing the south east shore there. Not too many people fish it and can get some bass in there. Dont forget there are the clay pits to the east of bessy rd, as well as the quarry ponds east of cement plant rd. Both require a bit of a hike in. Never had luck in the clay pits, but the quarry ponds I've had a little luck in. Some decent carp in there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
