Guys let us know which creek/river u will be going when salmon will start running in.let us know.thx
 
the closet one to me is Highland creek.this is great creek with grt salmon run.but Duffins,Humber is more better .i will try this also.
 
Duffins is in the best location for me if I do end up going.. I haven't fished the salmon run for a few years now..

I used to fish Oshawa creek too all the time a few years back, don't know how it is now tho.
 
port credit for me,
but will try out others too,
heard the creek in newcastle is pretty good.

and will deff explore georgian bay, from collingwood to owen sound.
 
Guys i went to Bowmanville Creek & Oshawa creek to check out for salmon.Bownmanville has started getting good salmon run.Lots of salmon stageing by dam.Wait till next week and it will be awesome

Oshawa creek has very less right now.Only few were spotted.Hopefully by next week it will get better

I will give update when i go again this sat.Thank you
 
Humber river: Still nought doing.

Port Credit: Lots of people no one catching and it stinks so bad I would't want to spend much time there.


One person mentioned the water is still very warm not sure if thats true or not as I aint stickin my hand in that
%&$$ water over at port credit no way!

Might be decent fishing but between the smell and the ammount of people good luck!

by dam? meaning them are somewhere upstream already?
 
I was at the humber earlier in the week and there was one guy in the river at Old mill, and he had one salmon in hand...he saw 2 and caught 1 nothing else happening there, but water was very low so lets wait for some rain.
 
how's the run in highland creek? i just walked the whole thing and the water was very low and crystal clear with not a fish in sight. when the rain comes will it get a good run?
how about steelhead either in the fall or the spring? does anybody know the regulations on this water? regs seem to say it is open year round...

yea we saw few salmon above dam.but there were lots & lots of salmon by dam.but you can fish there.but if you walk more downstream you will see them.
hope it helps
i am going there either 2morrow or sunday and i will give update.thx
 
By the way... mouth of the bowmanville = absolutely disgusting! It literally smell like sewage.
 
Beaver river is worth a trip if anyone has wheels to get up there. Just W of collingwood.

Lots of big boys climbing the fish lader and some reports of Steel being caught too.

Didn't fish just traveling and stopped off to watch for a few.
 
I was taking to a guy at Angling specialities today, and he said the salmon are running late this year. He said we need some cooler weather and some heavy rain before the Salmon really start running upstream.
