smerchly Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 When I was a kid back in the 50's we would drop a line from the small trolley bridge at Welland Vale on the 12 Mile creek , catching perch and some bass . There was a factory there which made "True Temper" garden tools and a water slide from the 12 carried waste water to the trolley bridge and down the 12 to Lake Ont. The lock is now fast rapids ,rail bridge is gone , factory gone and the 406 now runs over the "water slide" . We would walk behind Ridley Collage to access the base of the water slide where we caught many perch and dog fish ,etc. Many old spots have vanished or changed dramatically over the years ... https://www.stcatharinesstandard.ca/living-story/9084159-yesterday-today-hauling-the-freight-to-welland-vale/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
