ChefMick Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Taking the kids camping for sunday and Monday, going to target bass in Dils lake, but have never fished the welland river, any advice? thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdog Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Its dirty. Looks like a Timmy's Double Double. Colorado bladed spinnerbaits in black. If you find slop and lily pads try a frog. Chances are live bait will get you cats. Its a tough portion of the Welland River to fish. I find dark colours and noisy, vibrating baits work best! Good luck.

Frank81 Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 I love Chippawa Creek Conservation Area, not a huge park by any means but I grew up in that park, and still go there often, mainly day trips. Dils Lake can produce some fun fishing, especially for the kids and of course the Welland River that runs through the outskirts of the park is great, there is a boat launch there and if you can bring a boat, you can get into some decent catfish. Looking forward to you're post when you get back from camping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOE FISHIN Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Last time texas rigged dark plastics worked pretty well... that was a while back... fish might be smarter now : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChefMick Posted July 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 We saw tons of fireflies, I'm really glad we went. As per bass I talked to a local who was.......a bit influenced....and said there were 10lb. Bass in there. Heh..I'm pretty sure it hold a good number of stock; but no record breakers.

ChefMick Posted July 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Oh ok that's why I was asking if that was the river. I didn't think you could put a boat in the lake The boat launch to the lake is tight, get ready for a lot of weeds, and a tight drop in. And please watch for children playing near the launch, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larry b Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 There's 8 lb'rs in there ,seen em.Was feeding it sunfish ,I'd throw en back and it would eat them.Couldnt catch it as it clearly saw me but pretty cool anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iHasFish Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 We saw tons of fireflies, I'm really glad we went. As per bass I talked to a local who was.......a bit influenced....and said there were 10lb. Bass in there. Heh..I'm pretty sure it hold a good number of stock; but no record breakers.I believe that there is a ten pounder in there. It's a conservation area with strict policies and lots of fantastic forage. I haven't caught a ten pound fish in there but had the biggest bass I've ever seen jump for my frog and miss. The whole fish was out of the water. Massive!! The frog won't catch you as many fish there, but it'll sure get the big ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
