Guest Spoonman Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 How do I get to the whirlpool Stairs to fish from the Canadian Side. I am planning on heading down tommorow. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edg Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 The stairs are about 100 feet to the right of the parking lot across from the golf course (not the aero car lot where you can see the whirlpool) it is near the intersection of the Niagara Parkway and Whirlpool Rd. When you park there head towards the trees/river, stop at the paved ashphalt side walk(if you head down the dirt path straight in to the trees you have gone to far) head right - about 100 feet. You will see the entrance to the stairs down. Tightlines Edward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 You didn't say where you were coming from so i'll give you the directions if you are coming from St. Catherines. Take the QEW to the 405 turnoff just after St. Catherines. Take the Stanley Ave. cutoff and turn right at the stop sign. You will go through a 4-way stop then come to a railway track. Turn left on the road just before the track (I believe it's called Whirlpool Road) and go all the way to the end. Turn left there and you will see a parking lot on the right side right after you turn. Park there and the path down is just to the right. Be carefull down there, it's a little tricky.

Guest Spoonman Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 Thanks very much rick, what would suggest to try. I am taking my float rod and a spinning rod. Should I pick up some minnows or do pinkies and streamers and spawn do the trick. cheers RIck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just kidding. Have fun and be safe. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gill Finigan Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 Here's the best tip you'll get. Go to a lookout point and check ice conditions before the walk down. You can view the pool from look out at both sides of the areo car. Really stinks to walk down and find it unfishable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
