Tyler0420 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Jus seen the river in brantford. It's crazy high n pure mud. I'm sure the lower is even worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveC Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 https://www.grandriver.ca/index/document.cfm?Sec=2&Sub1=6&Sub2=4 this site gives the flow data but nothing on clarity....flowing pretty high and dirty right now. Hope to catch it when it settles down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ola Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 i think i hate the grand river and all the snobby, standoffish fish it holds. and i will feel that way until i can actually hook one of the buggers. then i will deny i ever wrote this post...

iHasFish Posted November 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 Checked it yesterday. I've never seen it so high. I was planning on getting in at whitemans creek and hiking up to the grand but even the creek was too high to wade. Dangerous even. It'll be a long while till it clears. Frig.

Is the fishing at whitemans creek not closed for the season??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler0420 Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 Yes it's closed. I think he was jus saying the creek was to high to wade so the river would be a disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveC Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 https://www.grandriver.ca/index/document.cfm?Sec=2&Sub1=6&Sub2=4 Can anyone make sense of the flow chart?? I dont get why everywhere else has dropped...not to ideal, but non the less dropped but Brantford is still running at 350. Thats too high to fish for sure. Must have been flooded out into the trees.

titanium77 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Brantford is open till end of dec. below Cali dam is open all yr.Not true. Extended season for trout on the grand ends dec 31. You can fish for other species after jan 1 but trout are out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler0420 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Crazy trout is closed right to the edge of Lake Erie on the grand. My mistake. Most rivers are open Atleast to the 1st dam or fish ladder on the river or Atleast a lil ways up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveC Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Good points Roebag. We should all educate ourselves to the waters we intend to fish. Putting something back into that fishery is also just as important. There is plenty of put and take fisheries and the Grand is not one of them, hence the single barbless no live bait catch and release section between Paris / Brant . Brantford just reopened its chapter of trout unlimited to be the voice of the grand river and its exceptional waters. I immediately involved myself with this group of dedicated people. We do numerous initiatives to improve the creeks and streams supporting the wild reproduction. Anyone who is interested can google trout unlimited Brantford chapter or can contact me and i will put you in touch. Most of us here that fish the grand are catch and release....but having said that, anyone who is fishing within the regulations spelled out for that body of water is nothing wrong. I will not condem anyone taking fish home that fish within the law set down. Some people should involve themselves for a better understanding....cleaning creeks and shorelines is not easy work, but its rewarding knowing that your at least giving something back. Talk is cheap....sign yourself up and get out and help with the workload. You will feel good about it....youl make some great friends...and youll get some great education. Too me thats what i love about fishing...every day there is something new to learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
