In Topic: Do people actually eat out of the Humber?

24 April 2009 - 01:34 AM

I know there's ministry guidelines indicating it's okay, but do people actually eat trout out of the Humber near Old Mill without consequence?

I'm sorry if it's a silly question but it's just that 'dirty river fish' are so stigmatized I wanted to just check first hand haha!

Yeah, the idea did strike me as a bit odd. Are the fish in the Humber right in the city even edible, though?

I'd still like some input on the best time of day! Haha, umm, provided that dawn is out of the question.

Thanks for all the good replies guys.

Hmm, okay. Is it okay to just kill any salmon for the eggs, or should I consider anything in terms of time of year, type of fish etc to be the most environmentally friendly about it?

Also, does anyone have any thoughts on the best time of day to go?

hey, welcome to the site, i've also caught lots of trout on corn before, but they were brookies so i don't know about rainbows, nyway, good luck if you go, and as for the salmon eggs, i know a few guys on this site catch salmon and then use the eggs from them


How does that work? Do you need to kill the salmon to ahrvest the eggs or are a lot of them dead anyways from spawning and stuff? I'm really, really ignorant about this kind of fishing. How do you catch the salmon in the first place to get eggs? LOL

BTW, do you catch pickeral in Bala!? If so, where?

Ahh, makes sense. What kind of minnows should I use for steelheads in the Humber? Plastic ones? Would those work better than salmon eggs?

By 'salmon eggs' we're just referring to the kind at Canadian Tire, right?
