Are the largies still aggressive on frogs this time of year? Love froggin early season but the ponds i fish got too grown in this summer. Wanted to give it a go now that the pads have died but too busy steelheading since september. Few from last couple days before the rains..

Are you sure about that? Think about the farmed salmon environment, what they're fed and what their overall health detriments are like. Kind of like basa (super cheap fish). Research it and see why. 🤢

Orange or pink is best for my eyes. Anything green or yellow washes out in the sun.

Hey everyone! Had some lucky days this season. Hoping to hit the river sooner than later. All the best!

I bet there’s some dying black salmon making its way through some sushi dishes as of recently 😯.

As I lifted her out of the net she shook and sent me a face full of eggs which were spewing out of her if I tipped her tail downwards. Can’t say I’ve ever had that happen before!!

Water was very high & fast & about 1 ft. viz. , using 2 oz. of lead but changing currents still moved weight about ....using corn bags for carp ,then shrimp for channels , or anything else . It got very noisy down there as several big jet liners passed by just above the clouds about 5 minutes apart . That spot is usually clean of garbage but some trashy people left their mark behind today ....couldn't stand to leave it so cleaned it up when I left . The main parking lot at Glendale has been closed ...looks permanent as a result of the oil that was dumped there .... But I came ho

Almost time for me to start fishing again....lol...nice bass by the way....I myself love the cold water fishing not really a summer time thing around niagara for me....cant wait for some crusher steelie fishing will be getting a good winter of that in for sure....

I post occasionally , been chasing carp mostly , but not many interested in carp ...going to fish the 12 Mile tomorrow since we have a break in the weather . I set up my minnow tank , will be chasing minnows soon and doing some float fishing for pike for a change ........and then ........ hope to get an early start on the ice ! BTW ....real nice bucket !

OK. I’ll play.... You already know what I do though... Salmon in the pool on spoons and spinners last 4 weeks. Will now move on to float fishing for salmon in the pool as the bite has changed predominantly to beads or roe. Once November arrives it’ll be steelie time where I will float fish, bottom bounce from shore, and by the sounds of it, bottom bounce from a boat on lucky days! 🙂

Some nice pictures I got while checking my game camera this weekend .

The farmers used to dump smelts under their fruit trees back in the 50's . I would rather see them incinerated .......or sent to China (more meat than bats) ...... 🤐

Fished a couple rivers yesterday. Saugeen was pretty much blown. A couple fish were caught but we left anyways. Went to Medford, water was clear but not much going on so headed to Thornbury. Water was nice lots of guys fishing. River seemed slow till we hit the fast water and Hooked around 15fish between two of us. Lost them all. The bows went ape $h!t when hooked. Trying to land them in the fast water by yourself with no net was impossible. Could’ve walked them down river but then there’s like 10 guys below you. The fight is the best part anyways. Light rain all day mostly but end up being d

Hey thanks Smerch!I believe your numbers are accurate 🤓

Agreed! I’ve spent a considerable amount of time reading into this. Farmed salmon is actually higher in toxins and antibiotics than wild. Since fish is a regular part of my families diet , I want to make sure what we’re ingesting in the best for us. There’s a reason why farmed fish is cheaper. Prime example look at tilapia, you can buy it for next to nothing at grocery stores and a lot of times is on special at restaurants. I absolutely will not buy farmed fish. I’ll eat A salmon out of Lake Ontario way before I’ll buy farmed salmon. Will also taste way better !

I still go with wild as there is too many hormones in farm raised fish, but will freeze it for a few days to kill any parasites, normally I would make different kinds of veggies rolls typically I use avocado, mango or cucumber. I also make a mean miso soup, there is a grocer downtown in St.Kitts, which is the only place I can find Japanese ingredients.

Wow!!! You guys pounded, respect!

I don't want my fish to be running around my plate & like to know what I'm eating and where it came from . ...never tried it . It may taste good , like the sauce its in . If you slice carp in thin slices you may not know the diff .....

Sushi Jade in Hamilton and Amakara in St.Catharines. Its the only food I go out for (eat in or order out). Everything else I can make at home. I want to keep that "special" even though it would be great to learn.

Hello, I will be fishing the lower this season and am looking for a partner. No cost just maybe some roe until I catch my first Bow. I have 8 years experience and will be fishing out of a Smoker Craft 161 with a 60hp Yamaha. This goes out to the shore guys. Let me know if your interested. Monday thru Friday no weekends or holidays. Serious not a joke. 1 person per trip. 289 257 6656. Caught this in the creek 2 days ago. PB 5.3

Lol

When I saw the tim bits boxes I thought someone(s) have been into the weed , seen lots of that going on at fishing holes . I usually have a green garbage bag in my back pack but only had a Wally bag which I used to wrap my maize bag . I had to flatten down the pop/beer cans etc to get it all in the Wally bag . At least 3 swivels with the steel leader Scott . Maybe there's too much drag from the fast current without the swivels . I was surprised my line held up dislodging that contraption from the depths of the strong current . There was a lot of light brown foam runn

Good Karma coming your way smerch. Sadly the reality of a careless society.

Here’s a spawning salmon from just now... She was released but did donate some eggs, one of which literally landed in my mouth. Caviar for breakfast.

I just can't believe what slobs some people are. I wonder what their homes and cars look like?

Goes to show you Smerch how many pigs🐷 live amongst us. Coodoes to you for cleaning after these slobs.👍 No wonder they close up places.

How the heck will I know when to change out my smoke detector batteries???? LOL ........................Daniel

Jack you are alive....

That package is about 5" X 5" Joe ...... not .5" x .5" 😘

I thought that was something completly different. lol

Good luck to all the deer hunters on here..be safe and shoot straight and post some pics of your harvest...I will be working hard to get my 16 yr old daughter her first buck with her compound bow...she's picked one particular buck we have on camera she would like at shot at and here he is in velvet (only a 3 yr old )

Let’s Us know how the suit works out.

Now THAT is a good thing Dave ! I just LOVE calling Bell "CANADA" and talking to someone in India , Pakistan , or Timbuktoo who I can't understand ..... For appliances (fridge , stove, washer, dryer) I have been dealing with Pirie Appliances for decades , decent prices and good service . If it wasn't for living only one km. from the plaza down the road at 4th Ave.,we would probably continue to shop at Costco occasionally . ....28 years coming up in December Dave ...... ....Our daughter waited on the phone for over 2 hrs. today to speak with a rep.at the unempl

I am also stocked up on that front ... thinking about 7 bucks a roll is fair ...

It works out great for my family.................This way we can avoid the drive to St. Catharines...................And the store should provide some job opportunities for the locals...................

Loving the new one in Grimsby, been doing the drive to St Kitts for over 15 years, cheap gas and a 20 pound propane is 12 bucks compared to over 20 at those tank exchange ripoffs, we also like the quality of many of the Kirkland products over name brands at the grocery stores

Nice hog

Fertilizer?

As someone who usually takes the drive to Grimsby for it, the newer stores are definitely worth it since they are a little larger, aisles are bigger and such. While the St Kitts one is an easy drive for me, I hate navigating the Fairview Mall area since I am always letting someone know how good they drive between runnings stop signs and red lights. The gas bar does not hurt either, I generally won't go out of my way to find cheaper gas, however that is an added benefit now.

Seems all they want is the license fee .... The first page of the regulations book should "try" to educate the morons who leave their trash all over the place !! Fines should start at $500 !

I have seen a pair of them spend hours in a marina and watched them devour many perch . Some were passing over me yesterday , a few at a time , coming from the area where you were fishing Dan . Some good points there .... keeping big hen perch full of eggs doesn't help the numbers either .... I saw a guy last week with 6-7 gobies in a small bucket of water ....destined for his dinner table ? ....another beef I have with our MNR that hands out licenses to one and all , regardless of their lack of knowing the regs.

As I approached the 6 diverters on Martindale pond yesterday, they were full of cormorants. They started diving into the water as I got closer. Easily over ---500--- birds. Explains why fishing has been tougher on this body of water.

We also need to get the other cormmorants under control as well. The human ones. I see them almost everyday taking fish regardless of size or species. You call the Ministry but there is no size limit on these fish and by the time the ministry gets around to checking. Well all the evidnce is gone. Time for size limits on Perch and Bass. Just my 2 cents. As for the feathered cormorants. Please after you shoot them be a good guy and dispose of them and not leave a mess.

Been fishing my usual spots this season and not doing too well. So I decided something needs to change. Guys that have been doing well this year are prebaiting spots before they fish them. So i decided I’m going to bait a new swim for the month of October and really only fish here. Second time baiting it and first time fishing it and the alarm is going off. Nice fight no long runs and staying down I was thinking this better not be a Cat. 11lb4oz common. Not the biggest fish but nice when something works out. Looking forward to fishing here the rest of the month and hopefully a couple more

It already does smerch anyone that has these phones will never give them up and go back to a flip phone it's funny that you talk about these kids staring at there phone adults are just as bad i call them tech zombies i was talking to my neighbor as he pulled out his phone as i was talking to him when i was finished talking to him he did not hear a word i said now if i'm talking to him and he pulls out his phone i walk away i don't understand what power these phones have over people and i guess i never will

I can probably count on one hand how many times I've fished this year, it's been a ridiculously terrible year for getting out.
