eskimo Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Any body been out on the grand ?... If so any one catching any walleye's ?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snaggy Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 There was a thread on it a while ago in the ice fishing forum. Sounds to me if you are really patient and work really hrs you might get a nice eye after a week or two of fishing lol...http://www.niagarafishing.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=31867#entry254124 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habs_Fan Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Plan on getting out to that spot this year! My buddy showed me some pics of a huge rainbow, and a couple walleye out of there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eskimo Posted January 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Thanks a lot guys. I don't live far so I might give it a go one day this week just to say I went this year lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emenius Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 I spent sometime there did not catch anything, the guys all around me with thier fancy technology with hd cameras and flashers did not see a thing. Not to mention current, its a dam where water levels are up and down. About as safe as hopscotch on the q.e.w. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coon729 Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 About 6" of good ice all around, if your scared of the current, walk farther down the river, calms right down out by Riverside Marina. Caught a 3.5lb and 4.5lb out there last week, hit and miss tho, and gota be willing to move around and switch up bait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always parked at the parking right on top of the dam. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnhunt Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Haven't fished there in 2yrs...but found if you catch 1 or 2 "eyes" in an outing...its a great day!..ones I've caught there have always been respectable for table fare (17-22") or 1.5 to 3lbs...found the best baits to be jigging spoons (with a rattle)..such as a buckshot tipped with a minnow..(rattle is the key..as the water is typically stained)..pretty good current there so you need to go on the heavier side to keep the bait as vertical as possible...

eskimo Posted January 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 I just parked at the boat launch right by the dam. Walk right on the ice. I've tried everything buck shots, jigging raps, jigs. Spoons and still nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finsanity Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Was out twice and only caught 1 rainbow...last week. Correct me if I'm wrong but you shouldn't be targeting rainbows this time of year on the grand this is called poaching and or fishing out of season.

cplummer Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Nobody said the rainbow was kept? It's what he landed! Nobody controls what fish bites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finsanity Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 Yes but it was a complaint that he only caught 1 that's why I asked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy2fish Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 Wow, are you the internet mnr? the guy never said he was targeting them. not everyone can tell what kind of fish is on the line and b wow this finsanity guy likes to cut people up and pretend like he's boss man around here i had a problem with him to but mods deleted my post about him being rude i guess if you're friends with mods you can belittle members and run a mean internet cop game hahahahaha you could have easily said hey remember rainbows are closed there this time of year make sure to cnr if u happen to hook one! But rhen as soon as cliff chimes in u bow down and obey ahahahahahahaha like a dog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner-2 Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 I think the complaint is that the Bow was the only thing he caught that day and knowing he cant keep it made for a bad day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smerchly Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 Comparing the Grand R. at Dunnville to the harbour at P.Dalhousie , I looked at the regs , and found that L.Erie is the boundary line for the fishing regs separating zone 16 and 19 . for bows.....exceptions.... Grand River - from the water’s edge of Lake Erie upstream to the dam in the Town of Caledonia - Haldimand County. Zone 20 at Port Dal. for bows , allows angling for them up to Lake Port Rd....( not near the dam) which is the boundary line for zone 16 & 20 . We had discussions a few years back about an "invisible" boundary line at Port Dal. for zone 20 & 16 where the "beach line" on either side of the lake was the boundary for zones 20 & 16 . The QEW is the boundary line for angling west of Port Dal. Must read those regs carefully ........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom S Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 I think its one of those made up pages fishermen always seem to refer to. Rules and regs are "interpreted" by whoever is reading them seems like lol Dude, I don't know what your problem is, but adjust your attitude. You've rubbed more people the wrong way with your grand total of 17 posts than I thought possible. I would recommend changing or you will quickly find yourself even more unwelcome here. I questioned Smerch on this so that loogans such as yourself don't use the excuse 'I read that it was in the regs on an online forum' to break some regs. I think that Smerch is smart enough to see that, your comments are unnecessary and unwanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emenius Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 Why dont we just delete the thread as its been stolen by a few jackasses for their own righteous fights. Considering the fact that all this talk in the open forum as somewhere as equally dangerous and delicate as the grand river should have probably been instantly hushed to keep this from getting out of control, or getting some person killed because they didnt know what they were getting themselves into.

Grand has an extended season from Paris to the mouth, but after December 31st it's closed until the 4th Saturday in April. Page 79. I was looking at this page ....2nd from bottom , which refers to walleye . I was trying to establish where the actual boundary line is for both Port Dalhousie and the Grand at Dunnville . I thought all game fish would come under the same rules when it came to boundary lines . I have only fished for walleye & cats there..... this is for zone 16 ..... ....there must be a better way to show these pages . I couldn't copy & paste the link or paragraph , so I took a photo of the page with my camera , cropped it , then uploaded it to the URL as I do with reg. pictures......
