Bones Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Went to the lower for minnows and fished for silvers for half an hour today and got six. it's been 20 years since I fished for them last. They put up a good fight and then give up. lol Water snake swam right in front of me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderstick Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Pretty fish... I enjoy catching them; they do a big run in the Lower Grand every late Spring and I always can't wait. To my knowledge, although some are being caught, It has not occurred in full force yet, and your picture has got me pumped! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rustyfisher Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 When I was a kid we mostly used small yellow spinners, some times minnows. Started in Niagara on the Lake and within a week we would be riding are bikes to the power plant outlets in Queenston after them. They are great fun.
