Hey Guys,

I am just your average catch and release Fisherman. Whats good in the KW area from the shoreline? (Grand River / nearby lakes)



I am new to the forum and Kitchener/Waterloo area. I was hoping I might find some experienced anglers in the area, willing to point me in the right direction. I have done some trekking through the bush and despite my persistence, my footwork has not yet paid off.

So far I have tried various spots on the Grand (St.Jacobs and Downtown Kitchener), Puslinch Lake, Shades Mills, Laurel Creek and two little ponds/ under the Bridge on Victoria Street North. I have also walked through the river with my waders in various spots. I have tried spinners, spoons, lures (Rapalas and Crank Baits)  and live bait where permitted. My regular "go to" tactics for up North don't seem to be cutting it, any suggestions? Hoping to hunt down a few good spots close by for Pike, Bass, Crappy, maybe even the odd Pikerel or Trout.

Cheers!

Did manage to pull in this decent carp today
