Howdy. I'll actually be out of town for the opener... Gloucester Pool near Port Severn, Thursday through Sunday. I'll probably start off targeting pickerel, but who knows... maybe I'll try for some float tube muskie? I heard somebody caught a 50 pounder there last fall. :) No, no, no. I'm...

Hey, now... that ain't fair! I caught plenty!!!

This is somewhat related to openfire's thread about fishing pressure... sort of, anyway. Something like 99.9% of the pond action we talked about last summer was bass... but I know I saw carp and bullhead last year. I never fished for them, but I did catch at least two small carp and some tiny...

Openfire is right... there is a permit. Toronto Harbour Power Vessel Operators Permit toober

I saw some at Bass Pro Shops (Vaughn) recently. They have some nice float tubes too, if you're into that. (I am.) Pontoon Boats at BPS toober

Hi Mikey, happy new year to you and everyone else! I've been pretty busy too. Who else had to work through the holiday period? I haven't touched a fishing rod in ages... :)

Hi everybody! Sorry I've been away for a while. I haven't been able to even think about fishing for a long time... too long! Welcome to OZfish and Bryan22, who signed up in November. There hasn't been too much action here for a little while, but I hope that's going to change soon. So who's...

Openfire... is the black torpedo on the list of prizes? I want in if it is!

Actually, she's got me handing out candy to the kids at the moment... no time to go to the Beer Store, better bring yer own! I think I'm actually allowed to go fishing now, but I just haven't had the chance. The weather's supposed to be good all week though... is there any chance the bass are...

No, I didn't see any salmon jumping, and I only caught the two smallmouth bass. I was on that first rock pile in the picture. By the way Mikey, this isn't near the Humber... it's the new Port Union waterfront in Scarborough. It's about halfway between Highland Creek and the Rouge River. I...

It was such a beautiful afternoon, I decided to go see if I could catch me a salmon. I went to this spot, which is near my neighbourhood. After about 30 minutes, I caught this, my first-ever salmon! That is a salmon, isn't it? I caught another one just like it about 10 minutes later. toober

So Mikey, what types of locations would be good to try? I guess river mouths are at the top of the list, but what else? For instance, the city recently opened up access to some recently improved waterfront near my neighbourhood... I've been wondering if it might be a good location to try...

Umm, I'd probably be up for that Mikey, but I don't usually plan that far ahead! :)

Wow, beautiful fish! I bet they were a lot of fun. Were there many people out fishing around you? I don't see anybody else in the pics.

Is anybody fishing the ponds, or has all the attention shifted to salmon/steelhead? I want to go out and try a few again, if the weather will cooperate and if my wife will let me. (I can already hear the "Waaaa Psssshh" from Rich...)

Does anyone here do any fly fishing? I've developed a real strong interest in it recently, to the point where I've been out looking at fly fishing gear with an eye towards making some purchases in the near future. If you have any pointers on gear, techniques, etc., please let me know!

Not evil, just mischievous. :) I'm just thankful my wife will probably never do the same thing... she would probably activate all the bad word filters... "bill get your loveing arse off the god darn computer!"

From a recent shoutbox conversation... jaimela hello jaimela any tips for rice lake? jaimela fishing for big ole bass? openfire yea, my GF's doc jaimela using what? openfire worms jaimela and a bobber? openfire yes, and don't forget a hook jaimela...

Hey openfire, next time you come down this way, PM me or something. I live near Port Union and Lawrence, so this is my neck of the woods. I've never had much luck fishing the Rouge Marsh from shore. I've done better from my float tube, going up the river a bit. Here's a nice 18 inch smallmouth...

I visited this pond on Sunday morning at 9:00 AM, and stayed for an hour. I caught 12 largies. That count doesn't include the two that managed to spit the bait, two feet from shore. Here's the spinner I used. It's from Dollarama. I get all my spinners from the dollar store now... when I used to...
