Tyler0420 Posted April 6, 2023 Report Share Posted April 6, 2023 Been so busy signing up for tournaments I forgot all about opener. Not sure if I’ll make it to a river/creek. If I take the day off I’ll probably hit Lake Ontario with my kayak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler0420 Posted April 22, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2023 Good luck to anyone getting tomorrow. I might sit in my truck or shelter and carp fish. honeyv, smerchly and NiagaraRiverFisher 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steellee Posted April 23, 2023 Report Share Posted April 23, 2023 I was thinking it was last Saturday in April not 4th the way things landed this year. Around noon figured it out and grabbed my float rod and headed out into the pouring rain.Hit up a small Erie trib close by with a modest run of steelhead. Nice only seeing 2 others in the couple hours I fished before getting pretty much rained out. Never thought much of them but the Berkley 3"pink worms with a bead have been hot for me going back to last spring and were bait of choice today Bubba14, Darryl L, fishingking and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steellee Posted April 23, 2023 Report Share Posted April 23, 2023 I find it best just lightly hooked through the fat section on a small sac hook so kind of in between. Than I can switch between baits easily as well. One from past trip this year you can see in photo kind of... A lot throw the plastics during fight as I hook it so lightly.

deetch Posted April 27, 2023 Report Share Posted April 27, 2023 Fished Nottawa yesterday and today. Weather on Tuesday was cloud with sporadic rain,sleet and cold. Fish have all pushed out. Today was a bit warmer and sunnier. The run was done well before opener this year. A few drop backs were caught. I guess this is a good sign, the fish did what they do and flushed out. Anyways always a good time with the boys. Tyler0420 and Bubba14 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya I have been hearing that on most Huron tribs the fish being done and gone or on there way out. I've been out at my local Erie trib here almost every day and am still seeing some spitting roe! Can usually get fish on this particular trib right up until May 24 weekend if you can keep the OOS bass off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelshady Posted April 29, 2023 Report Share Posted April 29, 2023 Been fishing the pool every week, this has been my worse year fishing the river as fishing has been tough. No fish at the pool, last year and previous years the pool has been loaded with fish, I think all the fish have spawn in February and are back in the lake lol. smerchly and Tyler0420 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
