Dave Posted August 28, 2022 Report Share Posted August 28, 2022 Any reports of Kings getting closer to shoreline yet?? My plans this year is to do more Kayak trolling.. Don't want to venture out to 100 fow but if they start hitting 40-50 I'm interested..Probably a week or two weeks away from them getting consistently closer?? Don't really know their habits fishing from water just twilight fishing from shore... Any tips appreciated.. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deetch Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 Dave it depends what area you are talking about. St Catharines area at least 2 weeks more like 3. Bronte and Port Credit it should be happening soon if not already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 Thanks Deetch, Yes definitely in the St. Catharines area.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler0420 Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 Still not much at bronte. Don’t worry Dave I’m keeping an ear out. will you be going out at night or just day fishing? I kinda wanna get 1-2 more walleye trips in before the salmon start. If there’s a nice day I may even hit up the deep deep water and fish for bows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 I'm willing to try night fishing out of Port D if interested.Probably wont have to go too far offshore either..Night fishing not my favourite thing but willing to try.The very first time setting out for Kings I managed 2 hook ups but lost both and that trip was early morning.I think I hit it perfect,a north wind must have pushed them in.. Looking to rig up a second Okuma line counter and trolling rod......Just bought some Scotty gear head rod mount extenders.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rod holders are fine now but I think they’ll get in the way when trying to bring a 20lb king into the yak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 I went with Scotty as I already had the basemounts on my Hobie Hrail system...Plus its easier to find scotty attachments around here..I needed to get the rod handles out of the cockpit..If staging kings don't pan out there's always the spring...I live near the lake so at least I can look at the conditions..
