    Salmon and steelhead fly rod suggestions

    I'm looking to get into some salmon on the fly this fall. I've already got a 5 weight fenwick I use for trout and steelhead. But now I feel like I need to amp it up a few more notches. If anyone has suggestions on what size of a rod to look into. Switch or spey rod? Any suggestions would be...

    Lake ontario shore/pier fishing late spring

    Just wondering if anyone has had any luck fishing the shores of lake ontario this time of year. I'm mainly in between cobourg and ajax, which is a pretty wide span. Trout/salmon? Walleye or pike? Thanks in advance!

    When you get rid of the skunk following you around.

    Nice fish! I've had a lot of fun the last week or so finally getting the hang of fly fishing for steelhead and catching them on my own ties! It's been a funny year, but still fortunate enough to have some hanging around the tribs

    steelhead opener 2019

    I'm gonna go ahead and assume most creeks will be pretty blown out. Don't know exactly what type of creeks clear out quicker than others,I would assume rocky ones. But I know I'll be heading to the ones that I can recall being clearer through past experience. Remember the fish are always...

    Can I frog fish with this setup

    Set up seems fine, i do it all the time with similar conditions and pull out the occasional 5+ pounder. Set your drag right and try to steer them away from thick stuff. The set up doesn't need to be too specific or complicated

    New bass lures to give a try

    There are too many great lures for bass. I like to try and get deep in those willow trees shore fishing. Those big largies love hiding in deep cover and shady spots during the day just waiting to slay

    Opener

    Found a whole pile of them staged south and my girlfriend managed to bring in a really nice healthy drop back female yesterday on our lunch break. Was a great second steelhead of her life!

    Good nymph rigs for this time of year

    Thanks for the info guys! I don't usually use indicators when i nymph later in the season for resident fish. But i figured the indicator will help keep my fly in the strike zone for a longer period of time. Gonna stock up on some egg patterns, midges and san juan worms before i hit the water...

    Night fishing for browns

    Looking to try some night fishing for browns around the cobourg/baltimore tribs. Anyone ever had any luck? I heard that's when the bigger ones come out to feed. Are they mostly just migratory browns hitting at night? I know there's some dams in the tribs south of me so i figure I'll mostly be...
